What It Does

AWS IoT SiteWise is a service that collects data from industrial equipment in factories and facilities, organizes it as asset models, and provides visualization. It retrieves data from existing industrial systems through a gateway that supports the OPC-UA protocol, and lets you monitor it in real time on dashboards.

Use Cases

Used for monitoring factory equipment utilization rates, optimizing energy consumption, collecting data for predictive maintenance, and centrally managing equipment data across multiple sites.

Everyday Analogy

Think of it like a centralized control room that consolidates all the instrument panels in a factory. It aggregates the meter (sensor) readings from each machine (asset) onto a single screen (dashboard) and detects anomalies in real time.

What Is IoT SiteWise?

AWS IoT SiteWise is a data management service specialized for Industrial IoT (IIoT). You define the hierarchical structure of equipment (factory > line > machine > sensor) using asset models and store each sensor's data as time series. With SiteWise Monitor, you can create dashboards without code, allowing on-site operators to monitor from a browser.

Gateways and Asset Models

The SiteWise gateway is software installed on an edge device that collects data from OPC-UA servers and sends it to the cloud. An asset model is a template that defines equipment attributes (temperature, pressure, RPM, etc.) and formulas (transforms, metrics). You create assets from models and associate them with actual equipment. To gain a deeper understanding of gateways and asset models, specialized books (Amazon) are also worth checking out.

Getting Started

Define asset models in the IoT SiteWise console and create assets. Deploy the SiteWise gateway to a Greengrass device and connect it to an OPC-UA server. Create a portal and dashboards in SiteWise Monitor to start visualizing your data.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Designed for integration with OPC-UA compatible industrial systems. Other protocols like Modbus require custom integration through IoT Core
  • Billed based on message count and data storage volume
