Course Description

Are you ready to take your STM32 and IoT skills to the next level by building real cloud connected devices on AWS?

This is a brand new course that is practice first, project driven, and step by step. You will not just learn concepts. You will build along and see your STM32 devices come alive with real AWS IoT Core integration..

In this hands on, project driven course, you will learn how to connect your STM32 microcontrollers to the AWS IoT Cloud and build real world IoT applications that are secure, reliable, and scalable.

Connect STM32 to AWS IoT Core using ESP32 Wi Fi bridge, publish and control devices with MQTT, deliver secure OTA firmware updates, and integrate Razorpay payment events in hands on projects

This is not a theory heavy course. It is all about building step by step, where you will write code, configure cloud services, and see your embedded device interact with AWS in real time.

By the end, you will have the skills to implement IoT systems that go beyond simple sensor readings, integrating with advanced features such as firmware updates over the air and even cloud driven business logic with payment gateways.


What you will learn?

  • How to set up AWS IoT Core for secure device-to-cloud communication

  • Connecting STM32 with ESP32 as a Wi-Fi bridge using AT commands

  • Publishing sensor data and receiving commands over MQTT

  • Implementing secure Over-the-Air firmware updates using AWS IoT Jobs

  • Managing cloud-to-device messaging and real-time responses

  • Integrating IoT with real-world business systems (Razorpay Payment Gateway)

  • Building end-to-end IoT workflows from device → cloud → device


Hardware Requirements

Note: If you already have a microcontroller development board, we recommend continuing with it. This course is designed with such thoroughness that the concepts and steps can be applied to most development boards though some minor adjustments may be needed. But, if you prefer to use the exact same board as the instructor for a smoother experience, you can check out the recommended hardware

Any STM32 Nucleo board with Fastbit IOT connect shield (Recommended)

or

Any STM32 development board + ESP32 module for Wi-Fi


Projects you build

  1. IoT Foundation Project – Connect STM32 to AWS, publish sensor data, and subscribe to commands using MQTT

  2. OTA Firmware Updates – Deliver new firmware securely from AWS S3 and update in the devices automatically.

  3. IoT + Payment Gateway – React to real-time Razorpay payment confirmations on your STM32 device with instant feedback on OLED display.

Who this course is for?

  • Embedded engineers who want to connect their devices to the cloud

  • Students or professionals interested in IoT product development

  • Makers who want to build practical IoT projects beyond basics

  • Anyone curious about how embedded devices interact with AWS IoT Core

Requirements

  • Basic knowledge of C programming and STM32 development

  • Familiarity with UART and microcontroller basics

  • An STM32 development board + ESP32 module for Wi-Fi

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Confidently connect STM32 devices to AWS IoT Core

  • Build real-world, cloud-integrated IoT applications

  • Deliver OTA firmware updates securely

  • Integrate IoT devices with modern digital services

The course covers a wide range of practical topics related to AWS IoT programming and is very useful to me.

By George Mohsen Mounir Awad Michael on 9/1/2026

I was most interested in the mqtt part sections 2 and 3 .. I think i needed more explanation about the different options to be used (even if it won't be used in the course) than just following blind steps.

By Saravanakumar Kandhallu Dwarakan on 2/27/2026

Good Explanation and detailed information

By Tony Mollica on 2/21/2026

Following along with the editing of the main.c file but the files in the gtihub aws_iot_stm32_main/projects/001_mqtt_subscribe_publish/core/src/main.c do not match at lesson 12. This prevents any cut and paste operations for main.c and makes adding the code a bit tedious going back and forth from the lesson to the IDE.

Started with a bang! Making fast progress. Explanations are crisp and compact. Thanks.

By Rahul S on 2/14/2026

fantastic course created looking for last 2 years, brilliant explanation, diplomatic voice and creator has understanding of each concept in depth.
