IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm, AWS edition, provides developers with the possibility to log in to an AWS account from within the C/C++ development toolchain IDE. During debugging, they are able to access the TCP/IP interface, see the status of MQTT packages and inspect the device shadow for complete control from device to cloud. The cloud communication with AWS IoT Core can also be inspected and controlled by subscribing to AWS topics and publishing commands.

The toolchain also provides support for Amazon FreeRTOS. Based on the FreeRTOS kernel, Amazon FreeRTOS includes software libraries that make it easy to securely connect devices locally to AWS Greengrass, or directly to the cloud, and update them remotely. For new devices, developers can choose to build their embedded and IoT applications on a variety of qualified microcontrollers from companies collaborating with AWS and IAR Systems, including NXP, STMicroelectronics, and Texas Instruments.

IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm, AWS edition, supports popular development kits for AWS and includes example projects that help users get started quickly with their connected applications. Learn more at www.iar.com/aws.

The new technology will be showcased at IAR Systems’ booth 67 at Embedded Conference Scandinavia, Kistamässan, Stockholm, on November 5-6.
