AWS IOT Platform based Remote Monitoring by using Raspberry Pi
AWS IOT Platform based Remote Monitoring by using Raspberry Pi
Abstract –To cater the needs of industry as well as society, it’s the proper time to deploy the IOT based technology to monitor different operations. Automation concept is coming in each and every sector to automate every operation. The leading technology partners such as Amazon, Microsoft & IBM have invented different IOT based platforms to automate the processes as well as operations.Now a day, every industry is trying their best to deploy IOT based services to connect each and every thing. By using AWS IOT platform, it’s very easy to interface different gateways such as Raspberry Pi and Arduino board. In this paper the Raspberry Pi is connected with AWS IOT platform for remote monitoring of any industrial as well as commercial application. Connections with remote locations can easily achieved by using messaging protocol such as MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport). The publish-subscribe pattern requires a message broker. The broker is responsible for distributing messages to interested clients based on the topic of a message.

INTRODUCTION
Different devices and instruments can be integrated using IOT and its integrated platform.IOT plays very important role while controlling and monitoring traditional as well as general household objects [1].In recent years, IOT has been attracting the attention of industrialists, researchers as well as government for deploying different services.By using internet, now a day it is possible to control and monitor all the things easily. Different things can communicate with each other, and can even make decisions by themselves with the help of internet [2]. Industry partners such as Amazon, Microsoft and IBM have introduced IOT based platforms such as AWS (Amazon Web Services) IOT, Microsoft Azure, and IBMBluemix Watson for effectively monitoring the remote applications. As per the ABI Research [3], in 2014 wireless connected devices will increase to 16 billion, about 20% more than in 2013. According to Gartner, Inc. (a technology research and advisory corporation), there will be nearly 20.8 billion devices on the Internet of things by 2020[4].
