No more long lived credentials
When connecting AWS and other services, we still see the issue of using long lived credentials for authentication. In this talk, we will solve the issue using AWS IAM OIDC providers and IAM outbound identity federation.

AWS Platform Engineering at Europe's Largest Tendering Platform
Building an AWS platform for Europe's largest tendering system means supporting a constantly growing number of workloads, teams, and architectural styles—from legacy solutions inherited through acquisitions to modern, event-driven and serverless systems. It often feels like fixing the plane while flying it. In this talk, we'll share how we built and evolved our AWS platform to reduce complexity for developers, provide a safe foundation for change, and enable all kinds of workloads to land and scale on the same platform—while keeping delivery fast.
