IoT
IoT Core control plane — things, thing groups/types, policies, certificates, and topic rules, plus an IoT Data shadow/publish surface.
Quick start
# See /docs/services/ for SDK patterns; IoT uses the standard boto3 client.

CloudFormation
The CloudFormation engine provisions these resource types via this service:
AWS::IoT::TopicRule
See CloudFormation engine for intrinsic support and lifecycle details.
Known limitations
- The rules engine evaluates each rule SQL SELECT on publish and dispatches matches to Lambda actions (other actions are stored but not dispatched). An embedded MQTT 3.1.1 broker runs over WebSocket (pub/sub, wildcards, QoS, retained messages, persistent sessions); there is no raw-TCP MQTT listener.
- Retained-message data-plane ops (GetRetainedMessage / ListRetainedMessages) return 501 Not Implemented.
