Hands-On Industrial Internet of Things

By: Giacomo Veneri, Antonio Capasso

Overview of this book

We live in an era where advanced automation is used to achieve accurate results. To set up an automation environment, you need to first configure a network that can be accessed anywhere and by any device. This book is a practical guide that helps you discover the technologies and use cases for Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). Hands-On Industrial Internet of Things takes you through the implementation of industrial processes and specialized control devices and protocols. You’ll study the process of identifying and connecting to different industrial data sources gathered from different sensors. Furthermore, you’ll be able to connect these sensors to cloud network, such as AWS IoT, Azure IoT, Google IoT, and OEM IoT platforms, and extract data from the cloud to your devices. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll gain hands-on experience in using open source Node-Red, Kafka, Cassandra, and Python. You will also learn how to develop streaming and batch-based Machine Learning algorithms. By the end of this book, you will have mastered the features of Industry 4.0 and be able to build stronger, faster, and more reliable IoT infrastructure in your Industry.

AWS architecture

In previous chapters, we designed an end-to-end standard architecture from the sensor to the operator. In this chapter, we will discover that AWS has a lot of similarities with the architecture proposed in the previous chapter; this cloud architecture is strongly based on microservices, queues, and common protocols, including HTTPS, MQTT, and REST API. From the point of view of infrastructure, AWS supports Kubernetes, Hadoop, Docker, and serverless platforms. From an IoT perspective, AWS has built its own solution: AWS IoT.

AWS IoT

AWS IoT is the IoT platform of AWS. The key components of AWS IoT are the following:

  • AWS Greengrass
  • AWS IoT Core
  • AWS IoT Analytics

Other components of AWS that are not specific...
