Partner data sources on SiteWise Edge gateways

When using an AWS IoT SiteWise Edge gateway you can connect a partner data source to your SiteWise Edge gateway and receive data from the partner in your SiteWise Edge gateway and the AWS cloud. These partner data sources are AWS IoT Greengrass components that are developed in partnership between AWS and the partner. When you add a partner data source, AWS IoT SiteWise will create this component and deploy it on your SiteWise Edge gateway.

Note

You can add one partner data source per gateway.

Security

As part of the Shared Responsibility Model between AWS, our customers, and our partners the following describes who is responsible for the different aspects of security:

Customer responsibility

  • Vetting the partner.

  • Configuring the network access given to the partner.

  • Monitoring for reasonable usage of the SiteWise Edge gateway machine resources (CPU, memory, and file system).

AWS responsibility

  • Isolating the partner from the customer AWS cloud resources except those needed by the partner. In this case, AWS IoT SiteWise ingestion.

  • Restricting the partner solution to a reasonable usage of the SiteWise Edge gateway machine resources (CPU and memory).

Partner responsibility

  • Using secure defaults.

  • Keeping the solution secure over time through patches and other appropriate updates.

  • Keeping customer data confidential.
