Hi All,
Our next event is at Stone and Chalk on the 16th of October.
Many of you will recognise Paul Steel from Infobiz Solutions - long time attendee of the group - always asking questions - he is a valued sponsor as well!.
Paul will tell us his story "A Journey From Windows to Cloud (SaaS) using Instagram Architecture on AWS"
Paul Steel, Founder of Infobiz Solutions, will delve into the architecture behind Instagram, a platform that significantly influenced his journey from a traditional Windows-based system to a modern Cloud-based SaaS solution running on AWS.
Drawing inspiration from Instagram's well-documented technical infrastructure, Paul will provide an exploration of how he transformed a legacy Windows Application to a scalable and efficient Cloud SaaS on AWS. He will walk the audience through the technical challenges, decision-making processes, and strategic milestones that marked the transition, offering insights into the well known Instagram approach.
Beyond the technical transformation, Paul will also touch on the business side of innovation. This includes critical aspects such as creating and protecting intellectual property (IP), legals (terms of service), business partnerships, and leveraging government grants and incentives. He will also briefly discuss business structures and the need for expert advice throughout the journey.
Additionally, Paul will provide a candid account of his experience with a multinational buyout, including the complexities and challenges faced along the way. His talk promises to offer both technical and entrepreneurial insights for anyone interested in the practical challenges and opportunities at the intersection of technology, cloud transformation, and business growth.
See you there!
