FileMaker Cloud Live - Hands-On
Details
This is a live, hands-on event to try out the newly-launched FileMaker Cloud hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). It will be hosted at 42 USA (http://42.us.org)'s brand new training facility in Fremont.
The goal is a hands-on experience for developers, consultants and prospective FileMaker Platform users to walk through setting up an instance of FileMaker Cloud, including how to migrate existing solutions to FileMaker Cloud.
Of course, you can also try out FileMaker Cloud and AWS on your own, but this event would be hosted in a group setting, enabling you to collaborate with others, get questions answered, and brainstorm ideas for using FileMaker Cloud.
For up to 25 attendees, we're arranging credit codes to cover AWS EC2 costs while testing FileMaker Cloud in a 15-day trial. (You'll also need a credit card to sign up for an AWS account, if you don't already have one. But AWS fees will be offset by the credit codes. AWS doesn't otherwise offer a "free" trial, as you need to pay at least a minimum fee based on scale, storage and data transfer for any use, short-term or long-term.)
Here's an official description of FileMaker Cloud:

New FileMaker Cloud provides secure, reliable access to custom apps using FileMaker Pro, FileMaker Go, and FileMaker WebDirect. Your data is managed by FileMaker Cloud and hosted through Amazon Web Services (AWS) — so you don’t have to do it yourself.
