AWS announced the general availability of AWS IoT SiteWise Edge on Siemens Industrial Edge. This new offering allows customers to easily collect and connect data from industrial equipment using Siemens Industrial Edge connectivity applications and send it to the cloud using AWS IoT SiteWise Edge. Users such as process engineers and maintenance technicians can use applications on Siemens Industrial Edge to gain insights or send the data to AWS IoT SiteWise to organize, standardize, and store data for driving critical use cases such as asset monitoring, predictive maintenance, energy monitoring, and building industrial data lakes.

Customers can collect data from their industrial equipment using Siemens connectivity applications such as OPC-UA, MQTT, Siemens S7, Modbus TCP, Profinet IO, and third-party connectors available on the Siemens Industrial Edge Marketplace. Customers can then use AWS IoT SiteWise Edge to seamlessly send this data to AWS. AWS IoT SiteWise Edge provides a streamlined machine-to-cloud data pipeline for use in 200+ AWS services, starting with AWS IoT SiteWise.
In the cloud, AWS IoT SiteWise enables industrial customers to improve operational efficiency and optimize asset performance by providing purpose-built, hybrid cloud-edge capabilities for analysis, storage, and enterprise-wide monitoring for industrial use cases. AWS IoT SiteWise is a managed service that makes it easy to collect, organize, and analyze data from industrial equipment at scale, as well as organize and standardize enterprise asset hierarchies.
AWS IoT SiteWise computes common industrial Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and metrics, supports anomaly detection, and alarms, and facilitates near real-time and analytical insights. Data can be visualized data and dashboards created using the no-code, fully managed web application AWS IoT SiteWise Monitor. AWS IoT SiteWise provides data organization and contextualization for use in local and cloud applications, facilitating use cases such as asset monitoring and predictive maintenance.
AWS IoT SiteWise Edge is available in all regions where AWS IoT SiteWise is supported.
