This session focuses on the business and strategic implications of leveraging IoT, and provides starting points in the AWS Cloud to accelerate your time to value. Learn how to build IoT solutions with AWS Greengrass to connect different types of cloud devices and reap the benefits of communicating your data across platforms to better respond to events, ensure secure communication, and reduce the cost of running IoT applications.

What is IoT?
Where are we now?
Where are we going?
• … more things than phones*
• “Integration of things”

4. Medical equipment
Most Machine Data Never Reaches The Cloud
Industrial machinery Extreme environments

5. The Edge Comes with Laws
Law of physics Law of economics Law of the land

6. Can we Bring Benefits of Cloud to IoT Edge?
Development
• APIs
• Infrastructure as software
• Frequent releases
• Adapts to business
Big Data Analytics
• Immediately available
• Broad & deep capabilities
• Trusted & secure
• Partners

12. Features of AWS Greengrass

13. Greengrass components
Greengrass is software, not
hardware (you bring your own)
2 components that work together:
• Greengrass Core
• IoT Device SDK

14. AWS Greengrass Core (GGC)
The runtime responsible for
Lambda execution, messaging,
device shadows, security, and for
interacting directly with the cloud

15. IoT device SDK
Any device that uses the IoT
device SDK can be configured to
interact with AWS Greengrass
Core via the local network
Devices can be small or big
Starts with the IoT device SDK
for C++, more coming soon

16. Devices work together locally
An AWS Greengrass group
is a set of cores and other
devices configured to
communicate with one
another

17. Devices work together with the cloud
AWS Greengrass works with
AWS IoT to maintain long-lived
connections and process data via
the rules engine
Your Lambda functions can also
interact directly with other AWS
services

18. Local Lambda
Lambda functions are event-driven
compute functions
With AWS Greengrass you can
write Lambda functions in the
cloud and deploy them locally

19. Local Lambda—what you can do
Command and control
Offline operation
Data filtering and aggregation
Get smarter over time

20. Shadows
JSON documents that
represent state of your devices
and Lambda functions
Define them however is logical
to you—a car, an engine, a fleet
Sync to the cloud or
keep them local

21. Security
Mutual auth, both locally and
also with the cloud
Certificate on your devices
can be associated to SigV4
credentials in the cloud
You can directly call any AWS
service from AWS Greengrass

24. Intel: Managing a fleet of trucks helps
mining company save millions
• Limited connectivity requires local
storage and processing
• Greengrass-enabled Intel gateways
pre-process sensor data on the trucks
• Road roughness models help
improve asset utilization & increase
