AWS will discontinue the IoT Fleet Hub.

In case you missed it, AWS will discontinue the IoT Fleet Hub.

Does it matter? It is hard to say. I always perceived that service as a bit limited and lacking functionalities. On the flip side, it was the only business-user-friendly web interface for browsing the state of the IoT fleet and sending commands to devices. I suggested the Fleet Hub to a few of my customers as a temporary solution until they build a custom web interface. I received mixed feedback from them, but at least FH was an available option.

What now? You can use the AWS IoT service suite to browse and interact with your devices. That is a less business-user-friendly way, as navigating this service is not always straightforward.

What do I recommend as the final solution? I understand the effort, but I do recommend building a custom web front-end to interact with your IoT fleet managed by AWS.
