AWS Re:Invent is supposed to be a great conference.\u00a0 I have thus far been unable to attend, but the videos of the presentations are posted online with about a day’s lag.\u00a0 So, like most conferences, you really should be networking and meeting people face to face rather than attending the presentations.<\/p>\n
Here’s the AWS Youtube channel<\/a> where you can watch all the videos, or just sample them.<\/p>\n I’ve found the talks to be of varying quality.\u00a0 Some just rehash the docs, but others, especially the deep dives, discuss interesting aspects of the AWS infrastructure that I haven’t found to be documented anywhere (here’s a great talk about Elastic Block Storage from 2016<\/a>).\u00a0 The talks by real customers also give a great viewpoint into how AWS’s offerings are actually implemented to provide business value (here’s a great talk from 2016 about using Amazon Machine Learning to predict real estate transactions<\/a>).<\/p>\n It’s a sprawling conference, well suited to AWS’s sprawling offering, and I bet no matter what your interest, you will be able to find a video worth watching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AWS Re:Invent is supposed to be a great conference.\u00a0 I have thus far been unable to attend, but the videos of the presentations are posted online with about a day’s […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[80,79,32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-amazon-machine-learning","category-aws","category-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2499"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2499\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2501,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2499\/revisions\/2501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mooreds.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
