Welcome to the next 2025 AWS Brisbane Well-Architected User Group Meetup!

Hi Architects,

Welcome to our next AWS Brisbane Well-Architected User Group Meetup!!! 🥳

At each meetup we covered off various pillars in detail, best-practices and insights from industry leaders that specialise in the Well-Architected Framework.

And giving away drones, of course. Lots of drones.

Our speakers this month include:

• Andrew Goifeld, Co-founder, Resilera

Validated Resilience the Well-Architected Way
Reducing risk, increasing reliability, well architected - all the buzzword are great - but how do we actually know our system will sail through the storms. In this talk we will tackle reliability, control plane, data plane and concepts that will give you a map for keeping your systems humming - even during unlikely events of outages.

• Renato Meireles, Cloud Assembly

Well-Architected Startups; A "How to" Guide
Calling on his experience at AWS, Renato will dive into how to ensure startups, whether they're ISVs or services focussed, can leverage Well-Architected principals to ensure that early-stage ventures move faster, scale smarter and win bigger.

• Mystery Speaker

Why cloud compliance isn't boring - it's essential (and how to make it fun!)
In this talk, our mystery speaker will explore why compliance in AWS is becoming more essential, what tools exist and how to take the pain out of it.

This month's menu will include:

• Pizzas
• Beer: Nastro Azzurro
• Wine: Big and red 🤤

So come join us at 5:30 for a 6pm start, followed by beer, wine, pizza and friendly networking after our talks :-)
