First talk

Title: Hosting Strategies on AWS

Abstract: This session will provide an overview of how the AWS services: Amazon S3, CloudFront, Amplify, EC2, Route53, BeansTalk, ECS, and EKS can easily help us to deploy on AWS our web solution. During this demo we’ll be able to identify which AWS resource best fit with our app, and for that, we’ve provided two different web solutions: one built using Vue.js (pure JavaScript Framework) and the second one using .NET Framework with Blazor.
