Today’s customers have a growing need for automation that helps them track data over time, manage workflows involving multiple people and facilitate complex business processes. Many teams use packaged applications like spreadsheets and emails to manage their work, but these tools make it hard to keep data in sync, lack individually personalized experiences, require too much manual effort and don’t work effectively on mobile devices.
Introducing Amazon Honeycode. It enables you to build an app to achieve your goals - with NO programming required. Honeycode makes it possible for customers to build powerful web and mobile applications without writing any code using a combination of spreadsheets and a visual application builder. Join this session to learn more about the world of No-Code development and how you can build a custom app that will help you and your team to be more productive.
Developer Advocate
10.05 AM - 10.35 AM
Mobile and web applications have become the primary channel for engaging users, it’s critical that developers deliver applications with uncompromising user experience, performance and scale.
In this session, I want to show you how to use AWS Amplify (mobile/web development tools and services) and AWS AppSync (managed GraphQL service) to develop, release and operate cloud-powered applications. Also we will see how we can manage the lifecycle of the application when working with multiple persons in a team. And while we do all this we will be building a React application from scratch that will be available for everybody to try after the presentation is over.
Developer Advocate
10.40 AM - 11.25 AM
We’ve heard the old adage that robots will take jobs away from humans. But what if instead, robots are just what our healthcare system needs to improve patient care? In this session, you’ll learn how robotics, AI and automation could contribute to long-term sustainability and profitability of the health care system.
Technical Product Manager
11.30 AM - 12.15 PM
Microservices and Containers are an increasingly important way for developers to package and deploy their applications. Amazon Web Services customers use containers as the fundamental unit of compute to deploy both existing and new workloads like microservices, big data, machine learning models and batch jobs. Amazon Elastic Containers Services (Amazon ECS) makes it easy to orchestrate containers to run most sensitive and mission critical applications because of its security, reliability and scalability.
During this session, we will demonstrate how you can deploy your unique applications and microservices using Amazon ECS and Amazon ECR (Elastic Containers Repository).
Solutions Architect
12.20 PM - 01.05 PM
To maximize the deployment velocity and application reliability, it is important to segregate the business functionality into microservices which reside in separate containers along with the environment it needs to run. Microservice architecture makes it possible to roll out rapid changes by keeping disruption to a minimum with the help of container orchestration platforms like kubernetes and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service(EKS) is a managed Kubernetes Service which takes care of undifferentiated yet all important “Heavy Lifting” and lets you focus on your customer priorities.
In this talk, we demonstrate how you can use EKS to scale your application deployments automatically.
Director, Engineering Operations
01.45 PM - 02.30 PM
Let's have a closer look at the evolution of DevOps process detailing the DevOps lifecycle and walkthrough how the AWS Native Developer Tools like AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodePipeline and AWS CodeDeploy can be used effectively to handle devops pipeline. Review the Web Application Deployment pipeline with the value addition that DevOps brings in for Software Development.
Technical Account Manager
02.35 PM - 03.20 PM
Building Cloud Native Application is beyond development. It is essential to understand the key characteristics and aspects before starting with development. In this session we will cover the key characteristics and patterns of building cloud native applications via microservices. We will talk about transition strategies to migrate from monolithic application to cloud native application.
Chief Executive Officer
10.40 AM - 11.25 AM
Learn about vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and security problems that may affect your cloud accounts, applications, and systems. This talk will include real world examples from security incidents, penetration testing, bug bounty reports, and data breaches. Teri Radichel will share sample findings from 2nd Sight Lab pentest and security assessment reports. Learn about common security problems in cloud environments and how to prevent them.
Solutions Architect
11.30 AM - 12.15 PM
The three-tier architecture is the most popular implementation of a multi-tier architecture and consists of a single presentation tier, logic tier and data tier. In this talk, we demonstrate how serverless services from AWS can be used to change the way you design multi-tier architectures and implement a popular pattern such as single page applications. We will specifically focus on usage of Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda to enable the creation of a serverless logic tier and DynamoDB for data tier.
Senior Cloud Architect
12.20 PM - 01.05 PM
In today’s business and technology world, massive amounts of data is produced every hour by businesses and users, which may be structured or unstructured. This vast and voluminous data must be ingested and transformed to derive meaningful insights.
This session will focus on how to build Serverless Data Lake using cloud-native and future-proof serverless data lake architecture. We will implement a Serverless data lake using AWS big data and analytics services including Amazon Kinesis Services for streaming data ingestion and analytics, AWS Glue for ETL and Data Catalogue Management, Amazon Athena to query Data Lake.
Solutions Architect
01.45 PM - 02.30 PM
We are embarking on the golden age of machine learning. Many of the constraints that typically held back the application of machine learning in the real world are starting to disappear. AWS offers a significant breadth and depth of cloud services. In this session, we explore the democratization of machine learning and how the growth of cloud services makes it easy for customers to move from idea to production with machine learning.
In this talk we will learn different components of AWS AI / ML Stack and how it helps to solve some of the Industry use cases with some cool demos.
Data Scientist
02.35 PM - 03.20 PM
To avoid the pitfalls of moving machine learning workloads to production, it is essential to adapt to modern MLOps strategies. This talk will demonstrate how we can build an effective MLOps pipeline - differentiating it from traditional SDLC and existing DevOps pipeline. We will utilise services such as AWS EKS, AWS Sagemaker and tools like Kubeflow/MLFlow.
At the end of this talk you will have an understanding of why MLOps is specifically required, in what way is it different from DevOps and how traditional SDLC is different from ML SDLC with practical use cases.
Technical Trainer
1.10 PM - 1.25 PM
The Cloud has become the new normal and there is a constant need to upskill yourself on the variety of AWS services and solutions available. This session will enable you to understand the various role based learning paths and create your personalised learning journey. You will also understand the various classroom/ digital trainings and certifications offered by AWS Training and Certifications.
