AAWS IoT Device Management
Jobs, fleet indexing and signed artifacts as AWS primitives — powerful, and entirely your problem to assemble.

- Type
- Cloud service
- How it works
- Not an OTA product but a set of pieces: Jobs delivers instructions to device groups, Fleet Indexing finds targets, Code Signing signs artifacts, and the device agent you write does the actual updating. Rollout controls and abort thresholds are good; the update logic is yours.

- Any (device-agnostic)
- Deployment
- SaaS (AWS)
- Rollback
- Job abort criteria; rollback is your job document’s responsibility
