Connected utility solutions for water and gas metering with AWS IoT
Introduction Water meters are present at almost every location that consumes water, such as residential houses or large-scale production plants. Avoiding water loss is increasingly important as water shortages are more frequent across all continents. Due to an aging infrastructure, 30% of water flowing through pipes is lost to leaks (AWS announces 6 new projects […]
Securing the future of mobility: UNECE WP.29 and AWS IoT for connected vehicle cybersecurity
Introduction As the automotive industry races towards a future of connected and autonomous vehicles, cybersecurity has emerged as a critical concern. With vehicles becoming increasingly reliant on software, sensors, and connectivity, they also become potential targets for cyberattacks. Recognizing this challenge, the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) has introduced the World Forum for […]
Emerging Architecture Patterns for Integrating IoT and generative AI on AWS
Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) devices have gained significant relevance in consumers’ lives. These include mobile phones, wearables, connected vehicles, smart homes, smart factories and other connected devices. Such devices, coupled with various sensing and networking mechanisms and now advanced computing capabilities, have opened up the potential to automate and make real-time decisions based […]
Improved Utility Asset Management and Maintenance using AWS IoT and GenAI Technologies
Average worldwide household electricity use is expected to rise about 75% between 2021 and 2050 (ExxonMobil Report, 2024) . Electric Vehicles (EV) adoption is expected to drive 38% of the domestic electricity demand increase by 2035 (Ross Pomeroy – RealClear Science). In addition, Distributed Resources (DER) deployments, such as solar PhotoVoltaic (PV) systems, will increase […]
Accelerate AWS IoT SiteWise insights with Edge2Web Power Tools
Introduction Edge2Web, an AWS partner, recently announced the general availability of Edge2Web Power Tools (EPT). This is a no-code, Software as a Service (SaaS) offering that helps to derive insights from industrial data stored in AWS IoT SiteWise. With EPT, organizations can better utilize AWS IoT SiteWise by allowing plant engineers, data analysts, and other […]
Optimize industrial operations through predictive maintenance using Amazon Monitron, AWS IoT TwinMaker, and Amazon Bedrock
Introduction Smart buildings and factories have hundreds or thousands of sensors continuously collecting operational data and system health information. These buildings increase efficiency and lower operating costs because the monitoring and data collected allow operations to shift from an “unplanned failures” to predictive maintenance approach. Operations managers and technicians in industrial environments (such as manufacturing […]
