Welcome to the last AWS Auckland Well Architected User Group Meetup of 2025!
After the overwhelming success of the combined event in Sydney in September, this month we're teaming up again with AWS Beers with Engineers in Auckland! 🥳
Join us to hear about Trust.Codes’s AWS journey, from startup, through growth and acquisition to then emerging as part of ASX-listed entity Codeifai (ASX:CDE) including their experience going through the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR). Trust.Codes’s AWS-Validated software is centred around a distinctive digital identity for each item, acting as a licence plate to intelligently capture and enrich data while enhancing communication and creating well-architected supply-chain efficiency and operational excellence.
We will also have Lorenzo Modesto from 6pillars.ai to go into the details of open-source vs proprietary tools for AWS posture management (AWS Automated Security Response on AWS/Prowler vs AWS Security Hub and other AWS tools).
This month's menu will include:
- Pizzas
- Beer: Nastro Azzuro
- Wine: Big and red 🤤
So come join us at 5:30pm for a 6pm SHARP start, followed by beer, wine, pizza and networking after our talks :-)
