Google Cloud will be discontinuing its Core IoT service on August 16, 2023, leaving IIoT companies with the need to find an alternative. Chances are you are affected by this upcoming shutdown and therefore you are looking for a new “plan B”. Why wait a year when you can do it now?
Remember, not all bad news is necessarily bad. In fact, this is a great opportunity for you to take full control over your organization’s data and decide if:
- You will migrate to another cloud vendor
- You will choose a niche supplier
- You will build a solution you own

What Amotus’ IoT PaaS Solution Can Do for You?
For the last four years, Dimonoff and Amotus have been working on Fundamentum, a similar solution to Google IoT Core, for their own products (Dimonoff Mobility). During this period, we developed all the necessary utilities to manage and maintain an IoT-driven application.
We have a lot of experience at all levels of the IoT stack: hardware design, firmware, embedded software and cloud. Our solution is usable as a Platform as a Service or you can even license it and deploy it “On Premise” or in any cloud provider.
Do You Have Any Specific Data Migration Requirements?
At Amotus, we have a lot of experience in supporting clients with their IoT application design, development and deployment.
If our IoT solution isn’t suitable for you, we can develop a complete custom solution to adapt to all your specific needs. Supporting you through this hard process is what we do best.
A “Drop-In” Replacement Solution with a Third-Party Cloud Provider?
From Microsoft® Azure IoT Platform to AWS IoT and ClearBlade IoT Core, there is a lot of choice for a replacement for your Google Cloud IoT Core. Going that way can look faster, but it has many downsides. Not being the owner of your code can lead to bad situations like you are in today. You won’t have all the flexibility with another third-party provider.
However, our experts can walk you through those alternatives and can help you plan a successful migration. We work with a wide range of third-party cloud providers that can do the heavy lifting to accelerate your platform migration.
