AWS Meetup Vienna #51 - hosted by Eversports

Summer is arriving in Vienna - and so is our next AWS meetup! ☀️

For our June edition, we’re going back to building: serverless architectures, modern cloud workflows, and a touch of AI to explore how these worlds increasingly connect in real projects.

A big thank you to Eversports for supporting the community and making the meetup possible! 🙌

"Building Conversational Agents in Code with AWS Lambda Durable Functions"

Speaker: Gunnar Grosch, Developer Advocate at Sinch | ex-AWS | AWS Serverless Hero

About the talk:
Building agentic AI workflows typically requires Step Functions or complex database state machines to handle human delays. AWS Lambda Durable Functions change that. You write sequential code in a single Lambda function that can suspend for days and resume instantly, and you only pay for active compute time. In this session, we will orchestrate Amazon Bedrock conversational agents using the Sinch Conversation API to handle inbound interactions. You will learn how to dispatch AI specialists, use simple callbacks to wait for asynchronous human input, and replace heavy infrastructure boilerplate with native durable execution.

"How RBI is automating its cloud foundation with AWS Step Functions"
Speaker: Roman Jokel, Cloud Architect (Raiffeisen Informatik)
/ Florian Ettinger, Solution Architect (AWS)

About the talk:
How can AWS Step Functions transform daily cloud operations? Join us to explore how RBI is using workflow orchestration to automate its cloud foundation. We’ll share practical insights from our Cloud Center of Excellence, demonstrating how Step Functions power landing zone operations, simplify automation, speed up deployments and enable scalable cloud governance across the organization.
