AWS IoT Core Provisioning
AWS IoT Core Provisioning is a service within AWS IoT Core that automates the secure registration and configuration of IoT devices at scale. It enables devices to be provisioned with unique identities, certificates, and policies without manual intervention, ensuring they can securely connect to AWS IoT Core. This service supports various provisioning methods, such as just-in-time provisioning (JITP) and fleet provisioning, to streamline device onboarding in IoT deployments.
Developers should use AWS IoT Core Provisioning when managing large-scale IoT deployments that require automated, secure device onboarding to reduce operational overhead and minimize human error. It is essential for scenarios like manufacturing, smart cities, or connected vehicles, where thousands of devices need to be registered quickly with consistent security policies. This service ensures devices are authenticated and authorized before they start transmitting data, enhancing overall IoT security and scalability.
