Agenda

13.30 - 14:00 Registration

14:00 - 15:00 AI: State of the Union

Whether you are a data scientist, ML researcher, or developer, AWS offers machine learning services and tools tailored to meet your needs and level of expertise. Developers can easily add intelligence to any application with a diverse selection of pre-trained services that provide computer vision, speech, language analysis, and chatbot functionality. They can also leverage the Deep Learning AMI or Amazon SageMaker, which enables data scientists and developers to quickly and easily build, train, and deploy machine learning models with high-performance machine learning algorithms, broad framework support, and one-click training, tuning and inference. Whether you're just getting started with AI or you're a deep learning expert, this session will provide a meaningful overview of how to get started with Artificial Intelligence with the AWS cloud.

15:00 - 16:00 Amazon Container Services: Highly scalable, easy to use container management and registry services

Containers are an increasingly important way for developers to package and deploy their applications. AWS offers multiple container products to help you deploy, manage, and scale containers in production: Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is a fully-managed container orchestration service; Amazon ECS for Kubernetes (EKS) is a managed service that makes it easy for you to run Kubernetes on AWS; Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) is a fully-managed Docker container registry; AWS Fargate is a technology for deploying and managing containers without having to manage the underlying infrastructure.

16:30 - 17.30 Serverless Architectural Patterns

As serverless architectures become more popular, AWS customers need a framework of patterns to help them deploy their workloads without managing servers or operating systems. This session introduces and describes five re-usable serverless patterns; web apps, stream processing, big data and automation. For each, we discuss the considerations and nuances associated with each pattern.
