What we’re about
Welcome to Auckland AWS Tools and Programming meetup group!
We're a group of developers, programmers, and other tech professionals passionate about AWS technology. We want to enable the opportunity for our community to come together to learn, discuss and share knowledge about AWS tools and best practices.
This meetup would include presentations and demos of tools, frameworks and services within the AWS ecosystem, and its focus would be on practical, hands-on learning and knowledge-sharing. The sessions will be interactive, where attendees can participate, share their experiences and collaborate on solutions if they like.
Our thoughts are to cover a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to, infrastructure within AWS, security, migrations, data, serverless, and more.
We are always looking for new speakers and topics, so if you are interested in presenting or have a suggestion, please let us know!
