Ensuring Synchronization and Reliability of Custom Device Logs with AWS IoT Cloud
Hey guys @IoT Cloud I need to ensure custom device logs, like ambient temperature data sent every 3 minutes, are synchronized with AWS IoT Cloud without duplicates or missing entries. Logs on the device are overwritten in a rolling fashion.
What is the standard approach for this? Is there a specific AWS tool or location that fits this use case, such as Device Shadow? Should each log type (e.g., temperature, error codes) have its own topic? I’m also looking for examples of how to implement this. What terminology should I use to find the correct information?

Solution
To sync device logs with AWS IoT Cloud without duplicate follow this steps
1. Send logs from your device to AWS IoT Core using MQTT or AWS IoT Device SDKs.
2. Set up a Thing and enable CloudWatch logging in AWS IoT Core.
3. Use CloudWatch Logs to store and process logs.
4. Use CloudWatch Log Insights to analyze and filter logs.
Also note this to
- Use unique identifiers (AWS IoT Core Id and Log Sequence Number) to prevent duplicates.
- Use separate topics for different log types.
- Implement device-side logic to handle log overflow.
