🕕 Schedule

• 5:30 PM: Networking and Food (provided by our great host AWS)
• 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM: Meetup Sessions
• 8:30 PM: Wrap Up

Meetup Sessions:

• Maria Encinar will be speaking about the AWS Community
• Antje Barth "From Software Developer to AI Engineer"
  Description: In this talk, Antje explores how generative AI is transforming the landscape of software development, enabling developers to innovate like never before. She will showcase the latest advancements in AI and demonstrate the powerful capabilities of generative AI tools available on AWS. You will learn how to harness these tools to accelerate your development processes, enhance creativity, and build robust, AI-driven applications.
• Iryna Sankovska "Building High-Performance Real-time Notification Systems with DynamoDB Streams and AWS Lambda"
  Description: In this focused session, we will explore best practices for setting up and integrating DynamoDB Streams and AWS Lambda, handling high throughput and scaling challenges, implementing advanced error handling and retry strategies, and performance optimizations.
• Anca Ghenade "AWS Integration Testing Made Easy for Your Cloud Apps"
  Description: Integration testing is complicated as it is, even more so when third-party services are involved, but cloud-native AWS applications that rely on managed services are especially tough to test. Cloud integration tests are particularly challenging due to the high complexity of the interconnected services, dependency management, deployment and provisioning intricacies, and potentially high costs. So, how can we bring the ease and speed of unit tests into these integration tests? Ideally, we’d like to use a local setup where we can quickly spin up and deploy our services in an emulated environment that’s as close as possible to the real deal. By simulating real-world scenarios and testing the integration of various parts of the system, these tests help us identify and resolve issues early in the development process.
• Koyel De "Opportunity for Generative AI for SaaS"
  Description - In this talk, I will share a perspective and opportunity for Generative AI (“Gen AI“) for Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) companies on AWS. We will examine industry trends and learnings from the past year, understand the common pitfalls, and share how SaaS Factory can help you in this journey.
