IoT devices communicate directly with applications - AWS IoT

Question

How do make my smart devices communicate with application on AWS?

Answer 1

You can have applications communicate directly to the connected devices using the Device Gateway and/or the Rules Engine in AWS IoT Core. However, its recommend to use the Registry and the Device Shadow since they offer richer and more structured development and management experience that lets you focus on the unique value you want to create for your customers rather than having to focus on the underlying communication and synchronization between the connected devices and the cloud.
