# Use packs to collect and process data in SiteWise Edge
<a name="data-packs"></a>

**Note**  
The data processing pack (DPP) feature is no longer availabke to new customers. Existing customers can continue to use the service as normal. For more information, see [Data processing pack availability change](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot-sitewise/latest/appguide/iotsitewise-dpp-availability-change.html).

AWS IoT SiteWise Edge gateways use different packs to determine how to collect and process your data. 

Currently, the following packs are available:
+ **Data collection pack** – Use this pack to collect your industrial data and route it to AWS Cloud destinations. By default, this pack is enabled automatically for your SiteWise Edge gateway.
+ **Data processing pack** – Use this pack to enable SiteWise Edge gateway communication with edge-configured asset models and assets. You can use edge configuration to control what asset data to compute and process on-site. You can then send your data to AWS IoT SiteWise or other AWS services. For more information about the data processing pack, see [Configure edge data processing for AWS IoT SiteWise models and assets](edge-processing.md).

## Upgrading packs
