Connected Home - Telemetry

Measuring and collecting data from smart home devices 1

The devices connect to AWS IoT Core,
directly via MQTT from FreeRTOS or via
AWS IoT Greengrass.
An IoT topic Rule can be configured in
AWS Cloud
2a AWS IoT Core to pick up meaningful data
and save it in Amazon DynamoDB.
AWS Lambda
2a 5a Another IoT topic Rule can be configured
1 2b in AWS IoT Core to trigger AWS IoT
Events for certain data, like temperature
IoT rule etc.
Amazon DynamoDB
AWS IoT Core Or, directly from AWS IoT Greengrass,
AWS IoT 2c data can be ingested in AWS IoT
4a
Greengrass Analytics.
AWS IoT Devices
SDKs IoT rule Client applications can make an API call
3a to retrieve data via Amazon API
1 1 2b Gateway.
3a AWS IoT Events can trigger Amazon SNS
3b Amazon API 3b actions in case certain changes occur in
FreeRTOS Gateway the data (e.g. Temperature > 25 degrees).
4b
Data from AWS IoT Analytics can be
AWS IoT Events 3c imported into Amazon QuickSight, for
visualization and further insights.
Amazon Simple 4c 4a Amazon API Gateway invokes an AWS
Notification Service
Lambda function with logic to retrieve
5a
2c 3c data requested by the client applications
from Amazon DynamoDB.

Amazon SNS triggers an email

4b
Amazon QuickSight notification for client applications.
AWS IoT
Analytics Client applications can visualize the data
4c in Amazon QuickSight.
