Ingest data to AWS IoT SiteWise
AWS IoT SiteWise is designed to efficiently collect and correlate industrial data with corresponding assets, representing various aspects of industrial operations. This documentation focuses on the practical aspects of ingesting data into AWS IoT SiteWise, offering multiple methods tailored to diverse industrial use cases. For instructions to build your virtual industrial operation, see Model industrial assets.
You can send industrial data to AWS IoT SiteWise using any of the following options:
-
AWS IoT SiteWise Edge–Use SiteWise Edge gateway as an intermediary between AWS IoT SiteWise and your data servers. AWS IoT SiteWise provides AWS IoT Greengrass components that you can deploy on any platform that can run AWS IoT Greengrass to set up a SiteWise Edge gateway. This option supports linking with OPC UA
server protocol. -
AWS IoT SiteWise API–Use the AWS IoT SiteWise API to upload data from any other source. Use our streaming BatchPutAssetPropertyValue API for ingestion within seconds, or the batch-oriented CreateBulkImportJob API to facilitate cost-effective ingestion in larger batches.
-
AWS IoT Core rules–Use AWS IoT Core rules to upload data from MQTT messages published by an AWS IoT thing or another AWS service.
-
AWS IoT Events actions–Use AWS IoT Events actions triggered by specific events in AWS IoT Events. This method is suitable for scenarios where data upload is tied to event occurrences.
-
AWS IoT Greengrass stream manager–Use AWS IoT Greengrass stream manager to upload data from local data sources using an edge device. This option caters to situations where data originates from on-premises or edge locations.
These methods offer a range of solutions for managing data from different sources. Delve into the details of each option to gain a comprehensive understanding of the data ingestion capabilities AWS IoT SiteWise provides.
