# IoT SiteWise Gateway

IoT SiteWise Gateway in AWS is a software appliance that runs on local hardware or edge devices to securely connect industrial equipment data to the AWS Cloud. It collects, processes, and transfers data from on-premises sources such as OPC-UA servers, historians, and other industrial systems into AWS IoT SiteWise for monitoring and analysis.
