About us
Dies ist eine Gruppe für Cloudbegeisterte, die sich mit Amazon Web Services (AWS) beruflich oder privat beschäftigen und mehr als nur virtuelle Server in der Cloud betreiben möchten. Auch Freunde von Microsoft Azure, IBM Cloud Platform, Google Cloud Platform oder anderen Umgebungen sind natürlich herzlich Willkommen um über den Tellerrand zu schauen! Der Fokus liegt allerdings auf Themen und Services aus dem AWS Ökosystem und dabei sind die Themen 'Serverless Computing', 'Cloud native Softwareentwicklung', 'DevOps' oder 'Containerisierung' diejenigen die immer wieder Einzug in die Meetups finden.
Wir versuchen bei unseren User Group Meetups immer aktuelle Themen rund um AWS aufzugreifen und euch interessante Speaker zu bieten. Dabei freuen wir uns über jeden Beitrag seitens der AWS Community und aus den Reihen unserer User Group Mitglieder.
Sollte von eurer Seite Interesse an einem Vortrag bei der AWS User Group Dortmund oder an einem Sponsoring für Räumlichkeiten / Catering bestehen, kontaktiere uns sehr gerne.
Wir freuen uns über jegliche Unterstützung.
