About Christian:
Hi my name is Christian. I am working as an AWS Solution Architect at DFL Digital Sports GmbH. Based in cologne with my beloved wife and two kids. I am interested in all things around ☁️ (cloud), 👨💻 (tech) and 🧠 (AI/ML).
With 10+ years of experience in several roles, I have a lot to talk about and love to share my experiences. I worked as a software developer in several companies in the media and entertainment business, as well as a solution engineer in a consulting company.
I love those challenges to provide high scalable systems for millions of users. And I love to collaborate with lots of people to design systems in front of a whiteboard.
I use AWS since 2013 where we built a voting system for a big live TV show in Germany. Since then I became a big fan on cloud, AWS and domain driven design.

About Luca:
Hi I’m Luca, Solutions Architect at AWS, working with Software Vendors in Germany. I’m German-Argentinian, live and work out of Munich, but am originally from Cologne and still love the city. I enjoy doing and watching sports, board and video games and of course cloud tech.
In 2022 I went through the AWS graduate program right after doing my Master’s in Computer Science at the Technical University of Munich. I’ve always been passionate about networking and have been doing research in DNS and IPv6 in the past, with my first and only publication so far on DNS over QUIC.
I’m now able to pursue that passion within AWS and can spend some of my time here focusing on topics such as IPv6 on AWS, Elastic Load Balancing or the rather new service AWS Verified Access.
