# AWS IoT SiteWise data source

The AWS IoT SiteWise data source lets you query and visualize data from [AWS IoT SiteWise](https://aws.amazon.com/iot-sitewise/) in Grafana. AWS IoT SiteWise is a managed service that collects, stores, organizes, and monitors data from industrial equipment at scale, so you can build dashboards for asset properties, aggregates, and time series without moving your data.

> 
> Use Grafana version 10.4.0 or later with the AWS IoT SiteWise data source. Grafana instances earlier than 10.4.0 can’t use AWS IoT SiteWise data source versions later than 1.25.2.
