Perform Multi-Cloud tasks in AWS Lambda without using AWS Secrets
Imagine you are given a task to develop a script to perform queries to the 3 major Cloud Providers (AWS, Azure & GCP). You decided to use AWS Lambda Function (next to no infrastructure, cost-effective and easy to implement), the default-go-to secret store will be AWS Secrets Manager. But then is it the best solution?

You go search the internet and most of the results concluded to something like below:

• Not rotated regularly
• Mismanagement or lack of stringent access controls
• Increased attack surface for attachers to target

Join Carl on how to utilise Hashicorp Vault, an identity-based secrets and encryption management system, to retrieve Cloud Platform credentials dynamically to perform multiple tasks in a Lambda function.

AWS Serverless - Not Lambda alone
What is the first service which comes to your mind when you hear Serverless? Betting it’s Lambda. If you have more time, you might remember DynamoDB, SQS, StepFunctions, API Gateway, and some others. Join us for an insightful presentation about running your workloads in a serverless environment on AWS Fargate with Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service).

In this session, Dmytro will provide an overview of use cases where you need to consider AWS EKS instead of other services to deploy your workload. You’ll learn the pros and cons of using EKS compared to Lambda and ECS.

Whether you're new to serverless or already leveraging it, this presentation will equip you with practical knowledge about AWS EKS.
