Amazon Monitron, the Amazon Web Services (AWS) machine learning (ML) service for industrial equipment condition monitoring, will no longer be available to new customers effective October 31, 2024. Existing customers of Amazon Monitron will be able to purchase devices and use the service as normal. We will continue to sell devices until July 2025 and will honor the 5-year device warranty, including service support. AWS continues to invest in security, availability, and performance improvements for Amazon Monitron, but we do not plan to introduce new features to Amazon Monitron.

This post discusses how customers can maintain access to Amazon Monitron after it is closed to new customers and what some alternatives are to Amazon Monitron.

Maintaining access to Amazon Monitron

Customers will be considered an existing customer if they have commissioned an Amazon Monitron sensor through a project any time in the 30 days prior to October 31, 2024. In order to maintain access to the service after October 31, 2024, customers should create a project and commission at least one sensor.

For any questions or support needed, you may contact your assigned account manager, solutions architect, or create a case from the AWS Management Console.
