Sending historical logging data to the cloud of Amazon S3

Hi,

I wonder if it exists any solution with the eWon Flexy 205 to send the data (from the irc files) directly to the cloud of Amazon S3 ?

I have around 500 tags which are logged every 10 minutes and I want to send them to Amazon cloud.

Normally we send data through a SFTP connection to a distant server but as the Flexy 205 does not support SFTP, we are looking for another solution.

Thank you in advance for your support !

Best regards,

Nicolas Piraux

Hello Nicolas,

If you want to get Data from the Flexy to a 3rd party Cloud, there are several ways:

  • You can typically Use MQTT if the Cloud service has an MQTT Broker.
  • If your cloud service has an API, you can use the Programming Commands HTTP put and get and the documentation (of the API of the 3rd Party) to program the Flexy to send the Data as the API of the 3rd Party clouds expects it.
  • Or you can go the other way around if it is easier to Programm in the 3rd Party Cloud for you. We also Provide Documentation of our API’s, and you can get a Developer ID and follow our Documentation on how to implement our API on the 3rd Party cloud. (They need to use https requests then. And you can also test with Programs like Postman to request Data from our API’s)

For your specific Question on the amazon cloud:
We have some example code you can use for the Amazon IoT Core:

You would need to find out how to get Data from the IoT Core to the Amazon S3 Part either by researching in the Amazon Documentation’s or if they provide support or other services that can help you.

I’m not sure if this is the S3 you are talking about:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/s3-rule-action.html

But you need to go to amazon for support on their functionalities.
