AWS IoT Service Integration for Real Industry 4.0 Deployments

The advent of Industry 4.0, resulting from the digitalization of industry, has led to a surge in demand for Industrial IoT and Edge Computing, which in turn has prompted major IT players and Foundations to launch their own IIoT frameworks and service solutions. Despite the huge advantages that this service solutions offer, the ready-to-use IoT-Cloud services the big players provide are seen by companies as black boxes, and more than often these services do not fit with the real industrial scenario of the companies or do not fully meet the use case requirements. To address these issues, we propose an integration solution to empower and adapt the services of one of the most used IoT Cloud solutions, AWS IoT. In addition, we show the implementation of our work in a real scenario provided by the company Northvolt. Finally, we demonstrate the goodness and efficiency of the proposed solution by showing the performance and latency tests along with their experimental results.
