AWS Meetup August 2019

Hey folks, we'll be meeting at the AWS Woodland Park Office. AWS has requested an attendee list, so you must RSVP "yes" and submit your name by 4 PM on Friday, August 9 in order to attend. RSVPs will close on that date. Thanks!

Here's what we have planned for this meetup:

6:00pm-6:30pm - Networking and food/drink sponsored by Ampsight

6:30pm - 8:30pm-ish – Talks:

*Brief introduction from our sponsor, Ampsight - Andy Heifetz

*EKS Quickstart - Kirk Kalvar, KAL Technology
Primer on using EKS, and a Nested Cloud Formation Template that completely sets up an AWS EKS cluster, incorporating steps that many guides have you set up manually.

*Functions to Full-Stack & Back Again - Ken Collins, CustomInk
Learn how thinking big with AWS Lambda and moving to Full-Stack Serverless using Web Application Frameworks could help your company's cloud adoption & innovation cycles. This is Custom Ink's story of our lift & shift cloud migration to cloud-native using Lamby (https://lamby.custominktech.com), a Rack/HTTP adapter for API Gateway or Application Load Balancers, as one of our tools to help deliver AWS Well-Architected solutions in a versatile programming environment that uses many languages.
