Key AWS services - Internet of Things (IoT) Lens

Key AWS services

The key AWS feature supporting cost optimization is cost allocation tags, which help you to understand the costs of a system. The following services and features are important in the three areas of cost optimization:

  • Cost-effective resources: Amazon Kinesis and Amazon S3 are AWS services that enable you to process multiple IoT messages in a single request in order to improve the cost effectiveness of compute resources.

  • Managing demand and supplying resources: AWS IoT Core is a managed IoT service for managing connectivity, device security to the cloud, messaging routing, and device state.

  • Optimize over time: The AWS IoT Blog section on the AWS website is a resource for learning about what is newly launched as part of AWS IoT.
