Rapidly deploy sensor-based industrial strength IoT devices on Amazon Web Services

This article briefly discusses the use of cloud-based resources and how they’ve evolved, and then introduces a full cloud kit based on an RX65N microcontroller from Renesas.
Endpoint devices for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) provide the essential interface between cloud-based resources and industrial processes. In linking the periphery with the cloud, however, an IIoT device needs to address escalating requirements for performance, connectivity, sensor integration, security, and reliability within the device itself, as well as between the device and cloud.
Specialised services such as Amazon IoT Core and Amazon FreeRTOS have helped meet those key requirements on the cloud side. However, connecting with those services on the device side can present additional complications for IIoT developers just getting started with cloud services and their many interfaces and protocols. These developers still have to be responsive to edge application sensing and processing requirements, as well cost, power, performance, and space constraints.
This article briefly discusses the use of cloud-based resources and how they’ve evolved, and then introduces a full cloud kit based on an RX65N microcontroller from Renesas. It shows how this microcontroller and reference design can be used in combination with its associated software package to rapidly implement sensor-based IIoT devices for integration with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.
