Proficient technologists working on the Industrial IoT vertical use lots of technologies and methods to control, manage and get information from the IoT devices. So, there are assembly lines and industrial aspects that needs to take into consideration when talking about IoT when used in an industrial scale.

The story we are going to tell is about an individual who is new to that industry and got hired by a company who is planning to adopt to Industry 4.0 standards in next 3 years, the company is already familiar with some AWS services and already uses it for some other projects, such as their website and other workloads, so it makes sense for them to explore IIoT capabilities on AWS as well.
The company got into a multi-year partnership with AWS to help them transform and innovate, the company is also hiring lots of people with IoT and Cloud background, preferably with industrial exposure. As today, the company hired Engineers and Architects, but they have limited industrial experience. The company plans to up-skill their existing workforce of industrial engineers with Cloud knowledge to expand their resource pool over time, and due to this workforce, there is a clear knowledge gap on how to build an edge to cloud continuum from factories to cloud today.
The course will help individuals on being on par with what’s new, and best practices used to perform well in a given role like that.
What You Will Learn
- Introduction to Industrial IoT
- What is the difference between IoT vs IIoT
- Difference between sensors, gateways and cloud things
- Introduction to AWS IoT Greengrass
Syllabus
WEEK 1
This week, you will be introduced to fundamental concepts of the Internet of Things (IoT) that can improve the performance and productivity of industrial processes. Though Industrial IoT (IIoT) has many benefits, companies face challenges when it comes to implementation. You will learn to unlock the value of IIoT with best practices and common use cases. Lastly, you will get hands-on with the deployment of an OPC-UA server, something that exists in almost every Industrial IoT factory.
WEEK 2
Building on your fundamental knowledge of Industrial IoT, you will be introduced to AWS IoT services, such as AWS IoT Greengrass, AWS IoT Core, and AWS IoT SiteWise. In addition to learning about the basic functionality of these AWS IoT services, you will also get hands-on in this week’s exercises by installing AWS IoT Greengrass Core software, and creating an AWS IoT SiteWise gateway.
WEEK 3
This week, you will be introduced to machine learning (ML) on the edge and how to apply it as a service in the industrial space. Next, you will learn about AWS services that can be used to process data that’s ingested from your Industrial IoT architecture. Lastly, you will get hands-on and create an AWS IoT SiteWise Monitor portal to view and analyze operational IIoT data.
WEEK 4
In the final week of this course, you will learn why security plays a vital role in the Industrial IoT landscape. You will learn about Zero Trust manufacturing for IoT device security and explore AWS integrations and features for IIoT security. Lastly, you will be introduced to security best practices for implementing IIoT solutions.
