EVENT DETAILS
Join us for a taste of AWS re:Invent at the Loft! We are offering sessions from the AWS re:Invent Architecture track. We're also featuring the Building Serverless Real-Time Data Processing Workshop (now with unicorns!) which introduces the basics of building web applications using AWS services. Lunch will be provided as we watch the Live Stream Keynotes by Andy Jassy, CEO of AWS, & Dr. Werner Vogels, CTO of AWS. AWS Solutions Architects will also be onsite to help answer any questions.

Agenda:

Wednesday, November 29 | 11:00AM-5:00PM

10:30AM-11:00AM | Check-in & Lunch (will be provided)

11:00AM-1:00PM | Keynote: Andy Jassy, CEO, AWS

1:00PM-1:15PM | Break

1:15PM-2:00PM | Born in the Cloud, Built like a Startup: This presentation compares three modern architecture patterns that startups are building their businesses around. It includes a realistic analysis of cost, team management, & security implications of each approach. It covers AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Amazon ECS, Docker, Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda, Amazon DynamoDB, & Amazon CloudFront.

2:00PM-3:00PM | Scaling up to Your First 10 Million Users: Cloud computing gives you a number of advantages, such as the ability to scale your web application or website on demand. If you have a new web application & want to use cloud computing, you might be asking yourself, "Where do I start?" Join us in this session to understand best practices for scaling your resources from one to millions of users. We show you how to best combine different AWS services, how to make smarter decisions for architecting your application, & how to scale your infrastructure in the cloud.

3:00PM-3:15PM | Break

3:15PM-5:00PM | Create a Serverless Image Processing Platform: Are you interested in processing images at scale without launching a single virtual machine? In this workshop, we show participants how to create an entirely serverless image processing platform using Amazon Cognito, AWS Lambda, Amazon Rekognition, & Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES). Participants leave this workshop with a web portal where users can upload images that ultimately end up in a searchable index powered by Amazon ES & Kibana.

Thursday, November 30 | 11:30AM-6:00PM

11:00AM-11:30AM | Check-in & Lunch (will be provided)

11:30AM-1:00PM | Keynote: Dr. Werner Vogels, VP & CTO, AWS

1:00PM-1:15PM | Break

1:15PM-2:15PM | Serverless Architectural Patterns & Best Practices: As serverless architectures become more popular, customers need a framework of patterns to help them identify how they can leverage AWS to deploy their workloads without managing servers or operating systems. This session describes re-usable serverless patterns while considering costs. For each pattern, we provide operational & security best practices & discuss potential pitfalls & nuances. We also discuss the considerations for moving an existing server-based workload to a serverless architecture. The patterns use services like AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, Amazon Kinesis Streams, Amazon Kinesis Analytics, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon S3, AWS Step Functions, AWS Config, AWS X-Ray, & Amazon Athena. This session can help you recognize candidates for serverless architectures in your own organizations & understand areas of potential savings & increased agility. What's new in 2017: using X-Ray in Lambda for tracing & operational insight; a pattern on high performance computing (HPC) using Lambda at scale; how a query can be achieved using Athena; Step Functions as a way to handle orchestration for both the Automation & Batch patterns; a pattern for Security Automation using AWS Config rules to detect & automatically remediate violations of security standards; how to validate API parameters in API Gateway to protect your API back-ends; & a solid focus on CI/CD development pipelines for serverless -that includes testing, deploying, & versioning (SAM tools).

2:15AM-3:15PM | Application Performance Management on AWS: Cloud is the new normal, & organizations are deploying different types workloads on AWS. Understanding the performance efficiency & overall application performance is critical to ensuring that you can scale your workload to meet the demands of your customers. Understanding how well your application performs over time helps you to continuously improve & innovate your software to get the most out of the AWS platform. If you aren't measuring custom application metrics, you are operating your software blindly & cannot pinpoint areas of improvement. Learn how to use Amazon CloudWatch custom metrics, alerts, dashboards & AWS X-Ray to architect an application monitoring service to provide insight to your workload's performance.

3:15PM-3:30PM | Break

3:30PM-6:00PM | Building Serverless Real-Time Data Processing (now with unicorns!): Calling all serverless developers! Wild Rydes (www.wildrydes.com), the world's leading unicorn transportation startup, needs your help! The company's rydesharing network of unicorns has grown to thousands, fulfilling hundreds of thousands of passenger rydes each day. Your mission is to collect, store, process, & analyze data to track the real-time location & health of our unicorns. In this workshop, learn how to build infrastructure to process data streams in real time using Amazon Kinesis. Build serverless applications using Amazon Kinesis Analytics to aggregate & summarize data, & use AWS Lambda to store aggregated data in Amazon DynamoDB. Finally, use Amazon Kinesis Firehose to build a data lake in Amazon S3, & use Amazon Athena to run ad-hoc queries against it. Requirements: laptop, text editor, AWS account, & AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) installed & configured.
