At this meetup, Chris Shenton, CTO at V! Studios, will be leading a discussion on using serverless at scale to import a large volume of engineering forms at NASA. Here's a talk teaser from Chris:
----------
NASA's Office of Extra Vehicular Activity (space walks) has a huge archive of scanned engineering documents they need to make searchable to improve astronaut safety; we built them a high-volume Optical Character Recognition system which we deployed to their AWS environment; it was the first use of Serverless technology in NASA's GovCloud, and has demonstrated excellent scalability and cost-savings. We present how serverless architectures differ from conventional designs and how we leverage S3 events to trigger processing by Lambda at scale.
--------
Come and join in on the conversation and meet your fellow AWSers. As always, pizza and drinks will be provided for free by Thorn Tech!
