AT&T Puts Its Connected Spaces IoT Bundle on AWS Marketplace

AT&T has listed its Connected Spaces offering on AWS Marketplace, packaging sensors, connectivity and cloud software as a single IoT product for small and mid-sized businesses. The system uses pre-integrated wireless sensors and a secure cloud platform to track conditions such as temperature, humidity, motion, energy use and basic security in near real time, with web dashboards and alerts instead of custom IT projects.

Buying through AWS Marketplace lets customers in sectors like retail, hospitality, healthcare, warehousing and property management procure and deploy the service through an existing cloud channel. AT&T says the hardware is plug-and-play, supports long-range, long-life sensors, and can scale by adding devices as needed. Data is encrypted end to end, and an early user at the University of South Carolina reports using people-counting and temperature sensors to better manage space usage and avoid equipment overheating.
