Inside the Cloud: How AWS Re-Invented the Internet – A Deep Dive into Hidden

Details

💡 Every time you call an `S3.getObject()` or run a Lambda function, you’re using invisible engineering magic.

This Meetup uncovers the internal layers of AWS, the engineering breakthroughs, and the real architectural patterns powering the cloud.
### 📜 How It All Started

  • 🏛️ From Amazon’s internal infra tools (like DynamoDB) → to full-blown public cloud
  • 📦 AWS EC2 launched in 2006 → the world’s 1st self-service infrastructure
  • 🛠️ Built to abstract hardware & reinvent software deployment

### 🧠 Internal AWS Engineering Masterstrokes:

  • 🔥 Firecracker: Ultra-fast, lightweight VMs powering Lambda & Fargate
  • 🔄 S3 Internal Architecture: How AWS achieves 11 9’s of durability using Erasure Coding + Consistency
  • 🌎 Global Infrastructure: Region → AZ → Edge → Local Zone → Outposts
  • 🧬 Event-Driven Patterns: SNS + SQS + Lambda to build async microservices
  • 💻 Nitro System: Dedicated hardware hypervisor that lets AWS offload virtualization securely

#### 1: “How AWS Changed Cloud Forever”

  • Real timeline: EC2, S3, Lambda
  • The evolution of cloud-native architecture

#### ⚙️ Session 2: “AWS Internals, Decoded”

  • Firecracker microVM live demo (CLI-based)
  • How DynamoDB avoids consistency issues
  • Lambda cold-starts vs provisioned concurrency

#### ⚔️ Session 3: “You vs AWS Engineers”

  • Can you build a basic version of S3 with Python?
  • Simulate IAM roles and permission graphs
  • Build your own microservice using SQS + Lambda

***
### 🎁 What Developers Will Get:

  • AWS Internal Innovation Sheet (PDF)
  • Code templates to simulate cloud design patterns
  • Mindmap of "How Request Flows in AWS from Browser → Lambda → S3"
  • Free Invite to AWS Infra Simulation Hackathon 💥

“AWS didn’t just build a cloud. They built the new internet.”
Come understand how – and why developers like you can
recreate pieces of it.
