AWS IoT Events
AWS IoT Events helps companies continuously
monitor their equipment and fleets of devices for failure or changes in operation and trigger
alerts to respond when events occur. AWS IoT Events recognizes events across multiple
sensors to identify operational issues, such as equipment slowdowns, and generates alerts such
as notifying support teams of an issue. AWS IoT Events offers a managed, complex event
detection service on the AWS Cloud, accessible through the AWS IoT Events console (a
browser-based graphical user interface (GUI) where you can define and manage your event
detectors, or directly ingest APIs). Understanding equipment or a process based on telemetry
from a single sensor is often not possible; a complex event detection service will combine
multiple sources of telemetry to gain full insight into equipment and processes. You define
conditional logic and states inside AWS IoT Events to evaluate incoming telemetry data to
detect events in equipment or a process. When AWS IoT Events detects an event, it can
initiate pre-defined actions in another AWS service, such as sending alerts through Amazon SNS.
AWS IoT Events pricing
With AWS IoT Events, you pay only for what you use with no
minimum fees or mandatory service usage. When you create an
event detector in AWS IoT Events, you apply conditional logic
such as if-then-else statements to understand events, such as
when a motor might be stuck. You are only charged for each
message that is evaluated in AWS IoT Events.

The AWS Free Tier is available to you for 12 months starting
on the date you create your AWS account. When your free usage
expires or if your application use exceeds the free usage
tiers, you simply pay the above rates. Your usage is
calculated each month across all regions and is automatically
applied to your bill. Note that free usage does not accumulate
from one billing period to the next.
