Berlin AWS User Group

You built, you broke, and now you will learn! Agentic coders are a major breakthrough for developers, making work easier (then at times more challenging!) Think about how these tools evolved from providing simple code blocks to actively rewriting the code inside IDE.

As we, developers, engineers and designers, who are still learning how to use them, we need to understand the reasoning behind these tools and follow some best practices.

Kiro Bootcamp - Learn from the Experts
In light of all these, we kept our promise and are happy to organize a half-day long Kiro Bootcamp for you.

Thanks to Rackspace Technology we will be gathering in WeWork, inviting experts from AWS to introduce you Kiro, explain the critical parts, help with getting the most out of it.

This is a hands-on workshop with a practical deep dive into starting-up, running and optimizing Kiro. You work through independent tasks that you can pick and choose from, learning how to build, deploy, and operate your ideas on Kiro IDE. By the end of the workshop, we aim that you understand how Kiro works, what things you have to take into account at spec-driven development, and how you can integrate your Kiro IDE to external and internal tools.

This workshop is aimed at developers, designers, cloud specialists and product developers. While it is not necessary to have extensive knowledge on AI development, it is ideal that you install Kiro in your device and try to build some minor projects in advance.

When? 5th of May, Tuesday,| 12:00 - 17:00
Where? WeWork - Stresemannstraße 123, 10963 Berlin

Amazon Aurora DSQL is a groundbreaking technology that has a potential to re-define the entire DBMS solutions. Yet there are lots to uncover, lots to learn on the resource!

Therefore, we are inviting you experts on Aurora DSQL with an engaging hands-on workshop to experiment uses of Aurora DSQL, and also learn on the topic.

Build a Multi-Region, Active-active Rewards App with Aurora DSQL
In this workshop, get hands-on experience with Amazon Aurora DSQL, a serverless distributed SQL database that delivers active-active high availability.

Learn how to build a retail rewards points application with active-active resiliency across multiple Availability Zones and two Regions. Explore how ACID transactions and active-active replication work in Aurora DSQL. Discover best practices for data model and application design and more. You must bring a laptop to participate.

This is a hands-on workshop with a practical deep dive into Amazon Aurora DSQL. You work through independent tasks that you need to complete, with support of AWS Facilitators.

The event will also begin with an expert talk: "The Evolution of Resilience - Lessons Learned from 25 Years of Infrastructure Architecture" - further details ahead!

Dear Community,

Another month with an interesting talk right before Hamburg Summit, and we would like to hear your thoughts for the rest of the year and after. Will be pleased to have you with us on the evening! We have limited seats - 50 only - first come first served!
Our dearest thanks to Lightspeed for hosting us on the evening!

===================================================

18:30 - Warming up and networking chat
18:45 - Intro by AWS UG Berlin
19:00 - 19:40 - Elias Abud // Delegated Access Management at Scale with AWS IAM Identity Center

This talk presents a delegation architecture that enables project owners and security stakeholders to manage their own users, groups, accounts, and permission sets while maintaining central governance. The solution introduces a unified API layer that can operate across multiple Identity Center instances and enforces organizational policies and quotas. It also applies the Backpressure Pattern to control request rates and protect Identity Center from overload.
Participants will learn how to implement delegated identity management at scale while balancing autonomy for teams with centralized security oversight.

19:40 - 20:00 - Networking break with food, snacks and drinks

20:00 - 20:40 - AWS User Group - Ask Me Anything
