19:00 - 19:45 - Andre Lopes // Intro to IaC in AWS With Terraform

In today’s fast-evolving tech world, infrastructure as code is transforming how we build and manage scalable infrastructure by allowing engineers to write blueprints of their desired resources. In this session, we will discuss the fundamentals of IaC and explore how Terraform can be a powerful ally in provisioning and managing your infrastructure in AWS.

20:05 - 20:50 - Jonathan Eichenhofer // Event-sourced Microservices With AWS Lambda Made Easy

Implementing Event Sourcing and CQRS with AWS doesn’t have to be complex. In this session, we’ll build an event-sourced application from scratch using serverless components like AWS Lambda and EventBridge. We’ll walk through how to plan, build, and deploy a microservice. By the end of the session, you'll be ready to implement your own event-sourced application using AWS serverless tools.

Jonathan is an enthusiast of Domain-Driven Design and Event Sourcing. Having worked as a developer and solution architect, he is now the Co-founder and CTO of a Berlin based startup building a platform for Domain-Driven Design and Event Sourcing.
