"Make your SaaS product available in AWS CloudFormation"

• Description: With AWS CloudFormation Public Extensions, you can bring third-party services—like MongoDB—into your infrastructure as code. But why stop there? You can also integrate your own SaaS product, making it effortlessly deployable for your customers via CloudFormation. In this session, we’ll walk through the process, uncover common pitfalls, and share best practices to help you build reusable components integrated into CloudFormation.

"Your Data Warehouse is a Dinosaur"

The last AWS re:invent announcement - S3 Tables - made it even easier on AWS. We will talk about what, why and how.
