AWS IoT Core, AWS IoT Device Management, and AWS IoT Device Defender have expanded support for Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) endpoints and IPv6. Developers can now use AWS PrivateLink to establish VPC endpoints for all data plane operations, management APIs, and credential provider. This enhancement allows IoT workloads to operate entirely within virtual private clouds without traversing the public internet, helping strengthen the security posture for IoT deployments. Additionally, IPv6 support for both VPC and public endpoints gives developers the flexibility to connect IoT devices and applications using either IPv6 or IPv4. This helps organizations meet local requirements for IPv6 while maintaining compatibility with existing IPv4 infrastructure. These features can be configured through the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, and AWS CloudFormation. The functionality is now generally available in all AWS Regions where the relevant AWS IoT services are offered. For more information about the https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/connect-to-iot.html and https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/IoTCore-VPC.html, customers can visit the AWS IoT technical documentation pages.

Today, AWS announced the general availability of managed integrations, a feature of AWS IoT Device Management designed to simplify the control and management of IoT devices across multiple manufacturers and connectivity protocols. Developers can now onboard and manage diverse IoT devices through a single unified interface regardless of connection type - direct, hub-based, or third-party cloud-based. Managed integrations can also use Cloud-to-Cloud (C2C) connectors and device data model templates. At https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2025/03/managed-integrations-aws-iot-device-management/, developers had access to a catalog of pre-built C2C connectors from partners and vendors along with 80+ device data model templates. Now, with expanded functionality, developers can create and list their own connectors and customize the templates to create new data models. Using the managed integrations feature, developers can accelerate their IoT solution development. The unified interface, combined with device and hub SDKs that support ZigBee, Z-Wave, and Wi-Fi protocols, streamlines device management and onboarding across multiple devices, vendors, and connectivity standards. Development is further accelerated by a catalog of pre-built C2C connectors and custom connector building capabilities to enable integration with various third-party cloud-based devices. Moreover, a comprehensive library of over 80+ device data model templates, based on AWS's implementation of the Matter data model standard, paired with the ability to create new data models, provides developers a flexible and scalable approach to define device capabilities. Managed integrations gives developers a powerful way to integrate devices into applications that are designed to provide a seamless experience for their end users, and empowers the creation of value-added services, such as home security, energy management, and elderly care monitoring.

Today, AWS IoT Core launches two new MQTT connection management APIs, GetConnection and ListSubscriptions, enabling you to easily access MQTT client connection and subscription information for your Internet of Things (IoT) devices. These APIs help you troubleshoot connectivity issues, monitor client behavior, and audit connection patterns across your device fleet. The GetConnection API gives you visibility into an IoT device connection by retrieving detailed connection information, including connection status, MQTT session details, and optional socket-level data such as source and target IP addresses, ports, and client VPC endpoint ID, controlled via granular IAM policies. The ListSubscriptions API complements this by returning all topic subscriptions, including QoS levels for a client’s MQTT session, for connected and offline clients with persistent sessions. This enables you to validate and identify overlapping or unnecessary subscriptions that may impact solution performance. Together with the existing DeleteConnection API, these new APIs provide a comprehensive MQTT connection management experience. These APIs are now available in all AWS regions where AWS IoT Core is supported. To learn more, visit the AWS IoT Core documentation and AWS IoT Core API reference guide.
