About us
Welcome to the Melbourne AWS User Group.
We are group dedicated to the cloud services provided by Amazon Web Services. Because we are specific to AWS we can go deep into some of the technical services provided by AWS and get some great insights into how their services work.
If you want to put your application in the cloud and have already chosen AWS, or if you already have applications in the AWS cloud, then this is a great group to get helpful insights and advice from other group members.
More information is available on our website.
The Melbourne AWS User Group is not affiliated with any organisations and is independent from Amazon.

📍 NAB Events Hub – 395 Bourke Street, Melbourne
⏰ Food at 6:00 pm, talks from 6:30 pm (with live stream)We’re doing something a little different for our October meetup.
Instead of our usual technical presentations, we’re bringing together two AWS Heroes, Stephen Sennett and Michael Walmsley, for a fireside chat.
No slides. No demos. Just a conversation.
We’ll be talking about AWS Community Day Australia, the AWS community, and AI across AWS — what’s happening now, what’s interesting, and where things might be heading.
A huge thank you to our sponsors: 🥇 Mantel Group – Gold Sponsor, 🥈 Cevo – Silver Sponsor, 🏛 NAB – Venue Sponsor
The event will be live-streamed on YouTube as always:
