AWS IoT Device Management introduces Software Package Catalog
AWS announces the Software Package Catalog preview. This is a new feature of AWS IoT Device Management that enables IoT customers to register, store, and report system software packages, along with their versions and metadata in a centralized location. With Software Package Catalog, you can now easily track and monitor software package versions throughout their fleet, gain valuable insights from a central dashboard, and perform updates targeting devices with specific software version.

The Software Package Catalog feature is deeply integrated with AWS IoT Device Management Fleet Indexing, enabling developers to easily index, search, and aggregate devices based on software package versions. This integration allows developers to gain a complete overview of package version distribution and aggregated metrics across their device fleet. This feature is also integrated with AWS IoT Device Management Jobs, delivering an additional benefit of taking targeted actions based on the software versions on each device. Developers can use AWS IoT Named Shadow for recording and maintaining package version information that’s installed on each device and derive necessary fleet-level metrics.
The Software Package Catalog feature is available to AWS IoT Device Management Fleet Indexing customers at no cost in all AWS Regions where AWS IoT Device Management is offered, with the exception of AWS GovCloud regions (US-West, US-EAST) and China regions (Beijing and Ningxia).
