Overview

Product Information on AWS IoT

Updated 13th October 2025

What is AWS IoT?

AWS IoT is a cloud-based software that enables organizations to securely connect, manage, and analyze data from Internet of Things devices. The software supports communication between devices and the cloud, device provisioning, authentication, and fine-grained access control. It assists with data collection, real-time analytics, and remote device management, facilitating scalable solutions for monitoring, automation, and predictive maintenance. Through integration with other AWS services, it enables the development of IoT applications that address business challenges such as operational efficiency, asset tracking, and quality assurance across various industries.

AWS IoT Pricing

AWS IoT software uses a pay as you go pricing model where charges are based on factors such as the number of messages transmitted, data processed, and connected devices, with no upfront fees or long-term commitments. Additional features or services such as device management and analytics are billed separately, with costs varying based on usage metrics and selected components.
