Welcome to the next 2026 AWS Melbourne Well-Architected User Group Meetup!
Details
Hi Architects,
Welcome to our next AWS Melbourne Well-Architected User Group Meetup for 2026, including more exceptional speakers and topics! :-D
At each meetup we covered off various pillars in detail, best-practices and insights from industry leaders that specialise in the Well-Architected Framework.
And giving away drones, of course. Lots of drones.
Please also note that AWS Security now requests a company name and company email where it is available. If you are a student, please list your institution and your student email address at that institution 👍
We’ll be updating throughout the month with more speakers and our speakers so far this month include:
- Mike Taylor, Solution Architect, TiDB
Will your data infra keep up, if your product goes viral? Well-Architected lessons from Kimi and Manus
As AI transitions from static prompts to autonomous, action-oriented agents, traditional data architectures often break down under the pressure of unpredictable scaling and relentless write workloads. We will explore the infrastructure of two massive-scale AI platforms, Kimi and Manus, through the lens of the well-architected framework.
- SkillzLab Well-Architected Build Session
Well-Architecting App Build-off
In this build session, we will have a live build-off with Students competing with AWS Builders and a drone for the most upvoted well-architected app on the night.
This month's menu will include:
- Pizzas
- Beer: Nastro Azzurro
- Wine: Big and red 🤤
NB: Please check in up the stairs from the ground floor to the Mezzanine Level.
So come join us at 5:30 for a 6pm SHARP start, followed by beer, wine, pizza and friendly networking after our talks :-)
