DevOps Dictionary

AWS IoT started as Amazon’s answer to the growing number of connected sensors, machines, and appliances that all needed a safe and consistent way to talk to the cloud. It is now a managed platform that lets you securely connect devices, move their data into AWS, and react to that data with rules and integrations. With AWS IoT, teams plug devices into one shared, managed backbone; without it, they must build and operate their own device messaging, security, and scaling layers, which typically leads to more custom work, slower delivery, and a higher chance of errors because every piece is built from scratch.
