Architecture Overview

Serverless architecture leveraging AWS IoT Core for MQTT communication and Lambda functions for processing telemetry rules.

Architecture Diagram PlaceholderImagine a beautiful systems architecture graph here.

The Problem

Managing device state and handling offline queuing for intermittent connections was unreliable.

The Solution

Utilized AWS IoT Device Shadows to manage state and implemented robust MQTT topics for command queuing.

Lessons Learned

"Serverless architectures excel in bursty IoT workloads, but require careful tuning of concurrency limits to avoid throttling."
