THEME: SERVERLESS - Developing Event-Driven Serverless Systems at Scale.

This AWS Community event focuses on the technical challenges of developing event-driven serverless systems at scale.

Joining us will be some of the world's leading developers and innovators from the world of Serverless, who will share with us their wisdom, techniques and their expert insights into building high performance serverless cloud applications.

If you are a developer/architect working with Serverless, don't let this meetup be the one you missed!!!

************
6.45pm - Lambda Architectures: a Snapshot, a Stream, & a Bunch of Deltas, Adrian Trenaman.

Adrian is SVP Engineering of HBC Digital, a division of the Gilt Groupe and leads engineering and infrastructure teams in New York and Dublin.

One of the AWS Community's most popular contributors, Adrian is recognised as one of the leading experts in Serverless architecture design & deployment.

"We all got so excited about breaking apart our monoliths and liberating our microservices. At HBC Tech, our work on luxury e-commerce experiences across gilt.com, saks.com, lordandtaylor.com, thebay.com and saksoff5th.com shows us that unconstrained, organic growth of microservice architectures can lead to a system with high numbers of inter-service dependencies (some of them hidden!), and deep call stacks. We asked ourselves the question: “how can we architect, build and run our services resiliently and at scale so that they can respond to requests without any immediate downstream dependencies?” Our approach is to leverage event-sourced architectures that allow core services to reliably share their information with other services asynchronously. At the heart of each solution is the snapshot, the stream, and a bunch of deltas.
In this talk I’ll give examples of these architectures in practice in our product, pricing, inventory and search services, the technology choices that have stuck: AWS Kinesis, AWS S3, AWS Lambda, Elasticache, and Calatrava. I’ll discuss how we’re making our way towards adopting Kafka as our backbone streaming implementation. And, I’ll show how we’ve begun to apply the techniques not just internally but also with external third-party vendors to keep our runtime dependencies low."

SERVERLESS CLINIC

If you have questions about Serverless and would like to discuss them directly with one of the speakers OR with an AWS specialist, then now is your chance. Grab your sandwich and your beer and make a beeline for the stage area where you'll find a wealth of support by industry veterans. Ask them nicely for help.....and bask in the warm glow of their knowledge!

PRIZE DRAW

The break is also the time to enter the prize draw. We'll have some fun prizes to give away at the end of the evening - so no sneaking off early before the end.

:)

MESSAGES

SPONSORS
This event is run entirely by the AWS Community and relies on the ongoing support of our sponsors. We're always on the lookout for new partners, so if you think your company would like to get involved drop us a line using the Messaging app on Meetup.com.

VOLUNTEERS. JOIN the AWS COMMUNITY Team
We are looking for volunteers to help with running the AWS Community in Dublin. Currently we're looking for developers to build our website and we also need assistance in running the events. If you are interested, get in touch using the Message app on Meetup.com.

AWS COMMUNITY
How can I actively learn from other engineers how to build, deploy and scale applications using AWS? How can I accelerate my AWS cloud learning? How can I actively participate in the various waves of emerging innovations such as Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things and Voice application design (to name but a few) to build more distinguished products & services? These are some of the questions this community is designed to answer.
