To start our exercise, we need to download the data to a repository that is accessible by SageMaker. To do this, we can use S3:
- We need to sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon S3 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3.
- In the upper-right corner of the AWS Management Console, we can choose our desired AWS region. In this example, we will use EU (Ireland).
- Now, we will need to create a bucket. In the S3 console, click on the + Create bucket button, as shown in the following screenshot:
Create bucket on S3
- For the Bucket name field, type iiot-book-data in the textbox and click Next. Leave everything as the default settings on the next two pages and click Create bucket on the Review page.
- Click the link for the bucket name you just created and then click on the Upload button, as shown in the following screenshot:

- Click + Add more files, find and select the train_FD001.txt file, the test_FD001.txt file, and the RUL_FD001.txt file, and click Upload.
