AWS re:Invent re:Cap @ Devoteam — what matters, what’s next

Tue, Jan 13 · 6:00 PM CET

Devoteam, Culliganlaan 3, 1831 Machelen, Machelen, BE

AWS moves fast, and it’s easy to lose the signal in the noise. This evening is designed to give you a crisp, practical recap of the most impactful AWS updates — with a strong focus on what you can actually apply in 2026.
Expect a session that’s practical, opinionated (in a good way), and interactive, with plenty of time for Q&A and networking.

Kindly hosted by Devoteam who will also be providing pizza and drinks.

## What we’ll cover (with AWS re:Invent 2025 highlights)

We’ll use AWS re:Invent 2025 as a backbone and zoom in on the announcements and themes that are most relevant for builders and architects:

Agentic AI & model customization
New model families and capabilities (speech / reasoning / multimodal)
Automation for UI/workflows and “doing work” (not just chatting)
What customization/pretraining means for real enterprises
Bedrock + RAG foundations
Agent deployment foundations: evaluations, policy controls, guardrails
Scalable vector/RAG building blocks and how to design them cleanly
AI infrastructure & custom silicon
Where training/inference is going (and what changes for cost/perf)
Graviton / Trainium direction and what’s practical today
Serverless & app workflows
More “stateful” serverless patterns (durable, long-running flows)
When to choose serverless vs containers vs managed instances
Security & trust
Moving from alerts → prioritized risk and near real-time detection
Identity policy automation and practical governance patterns
Operations, governance & modernization
Observability/ops improvements and AI help for ops
Modernization accelerators and how to use them without chaos
Developer productivity
Where dev tooling is heading (agents, automation, feedback loops)
Tips to keep teams productive while AWS keeps shipping

✅ Takeaways: a curated “what matters” list, practical guidance (when to use what / when not to), and “try this next week” ideas you can bring back to your team.
