Rejoignez-nous pour une soirée intense mêlant apprentissage, collaboration et compétition – le tout dans la console AWS.

Les groupes d’utilisateurs francophones d’Afrique et d’Europe, en partenariat avec AWS, sont fiers de vous présenter le tout premier AWS GameDay Francophone. C’est l’occasion idéale de tester vos compétences AWS dans un cadre divertissant et stimulant.

🦄 Qu’est-ce qu’un GameDay AWS ?
Un AWS GameDay est un événement d’apprentissage ludique qui met les participants au défi d’utiliser les solutions AWS pour résoudre des problèmes techniques réels en équipe. Contrairement aux ateliers traditionnels, les GameDays sont ouverts et non prescriptifs, offrant aux participants la liberté d’explorer et de penser en dehors des sentiers battus.

Viens incarner un Consultant chez Unicorn.Rentals, dans l’objectif d’améliorer leur efficacité opérationnelle à travers les services Serverless.

Embarquez avec vous, vos amis ou collègues - vous pouvez former une équipe avec eux, de 3 à 4 joueurs.

Join the AWS User Group Belgium for an evening of cloud security, sovereignty, and networking.

📣 Talk 1 – Using IAM Roles Anywhere with Existing PKI
Speaker: Ben Brits
Secure authentication of both humans and machines is a challenge every organization faces—especially when your proof of identity isn’t already in AWS.
Ben will show how to integrate existing PKI—think Belgium’s eID or hardware keys—to access AWS with phishing-resistant authentication using IAM Roles Anywhere. By the end, you’ll see how to move beyond plain-text credentials and leverage trusted hardware instead.

📣 Talk 2 – AWS European Sovereign Cloud – A Game Changer for Cloud-Reluctant Companies
Speaker: Michel Radermecker
The launch of AWS’s European Sovereign Cloud marks a major milestone for organizations across Europe that have hesitated to embrace the cloud due to regulatory, compliance, or sovereignty concerns.
In this session, we’ll explore how this new AWS offering is designed to meet strict EU requirements while maintaining the innovation and scalability of the AWS platform. You’ll learn what sets the European Sovereign Cloud apart, which use cases it unlocks, and why it could be a turning point for cloud-reluctant companies.
