☁️ **Clouders, ¡bienvenidos al meetup presencial de mayo del AWS User Group Medellín!** 🎉 En colaboración con **RIWI.IO** Un espacio para inspirarte, aprender y seguir construyendo tu camino en la nube. 📅 **Sábado 16 de mayo de 2026** 🕤 **9:30 AM - 12:00 PM** 📍 **Calle 16 # 55-129, Piso 3, Outlet — Auditorio** 🎟️ **Entrada gratuita** 👥 **Presencial** *** **Certificaciones, Seguridad y el Futuro Tech: lo que nadie te cuenta** Tendremos dos charlas pensadas para ti: una para entender cómo las certificaciones impactan (o no) tu carrera tech, y otra para dominar la seguridad en AWS desde IAM hasta agentes de IA. *** 🎤 **CHARLA 1: Sin certificación, ¿Hay contratación?** **Speakers:** **Diana David** — IT Recruiter, HR Manager y Mentora Tech Psicóloga con más de 8 años de experiencia en el sector tech. Ha trabajado en compañías con presencia internacional y acompañado procesos de mentoría para perfiles tech que quieren impulsar su carrera a nivel global. **Lucas Vera** — AWS Community Builder, Arquitecto Técnico y Desarrollador Full-Stack Más de 11 años en desarrollo de software y +5 años como entrevistador técnico en procesos de selección para perfiles de ingeniería. Especializado en soluciones serverless sobre AWS. ¿Cuánto pesa una certificación en la industria? ¿Cómo sobresalir si no se tiene alguna? ¿Cómo hacer la diferencia cuando sí se tiene una? Dos perspectivas — recruiting y técnica — en una sola conversación. *** 🔐 **CHARLA 2: IAM, Perímetro e IA: Un Recorrido Práctico por la Seguridad en AWS** **Speaker: Juan David Alvarez Builes** — Senior Cloud Security Consultant en AWS ProServe Ingeniero de Sistemas de la Universidad EAFIT. +15 años en ciberseguridad y arquitectura TI. 13 certificaciones AWS activas + CISM. Speaker en RSA Conference 2026 y Ekoparty 2025. Basado en Medellín. Un recorrido práctico desde las bases: identidad y control de acceso con IAM, controles de perímetro organizacional como SCPs y RCPs, y los servicios clave de seguridad en AWS — todo con lecciones aprendidas reales y **demo en vivo**. Porque cuando un agente de IA actúa en nombre de un humano, cada política que no esté bien definida se convierte en una superficie de ataque a velocidad de máquina. *** **¿Qué incluye el evento?** ✔ Networking con la comunidad cloud de Medellín ✔ Dos charlas técnicas y de carrera ✔ Espacio para preguntas y debate con los speakers ✔ Snacks **¡Regístrate y asegura tu lugar!**

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

We may pick a specific topic and post in advance or may discuss current events and various ad hoc topics . We would love to spend time hanging out and getting to know one another. Atheist, agnostics, other non-theists, and atheist-friendly people are welcome to join us. Note: COUNT operates a Facebook page at www.facebook.com/groups/COUNT.discussions (http://www.facebook.com/groups/COUNT.discussions/) to promote discussions among members and visitors.

**🎯 Short Rounds Genuine People for Surrey People Done with Apps** Throughout the event, you'll spend your time in focused short video rounds with Surrey locals paired by quiz results and age range, with a dedicated host managing each round. During sign-up, you complete a brief compatibility form — we use those answers to pair you intelligently with Surrey locals, so every person you meet has been matched to you on purpose. After all the rounds, match notifications go to both parties — but only if the feeling was mutual — and you are in control of what happens next. **Pick your age range and grab a spot:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=30-46&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=40-58&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=537.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Surrey&groupurlname=bloom-with-genuine-peers-through-events&ar=55+&face_v=3.0) **⚠️ Spot not held yet:** Rsvping on meetup does not confirm your spot at the event, so tap your age group link above, register fully, and complete the personality matching quiz — numbers are intentionally limited so register early, and your spot is held only when both steps are done. --- **Perfect for:** - Women and men from Surrey ready to move past digital dating that never converts to anything real and prefer meeting people in person first. - Members based in Surrey who no longer want swiping left and right with no results and value real conversation over curated profiles. - Returners locally in Surrey who are tired of app fatigue and empty match queues and want to talk to real people tonight. - Returners near Surrey who have given up on profiles that never convert to actual dates and prefer structure over ambiguity. **What to Know** - **Format:** Live on a live video platform featuring private video date rounds, compatibility-matched within your age range. - **Where:** No travel required — on any internet-connected device, camera mic and Wi-Fi — that is the full tech list, and you can pick whatever quiet spot works for you. - **Host:** An attentive host keeps everything on track and stress-free throughout, so the focus stays entirely on the people you are meeting — from first round to final result it is all managed for you. - **Vibe:** Easy-going personal date rounds with Surrey singles who are here for the same reason you are, and first-timers always leave surprised by how natural it felt. - **Duration:** Around one to one-and-a-half hours from opening to close, and most people say it flies by. **The breakdown** 1. **Confirm your place** – through the age-specific link above, then fill in the personality matching questionnaire, as completing both steps locks in your place. 2. **Join the session** – by clicking the Zoom invite at the event time, no download is needed since it works in any browser, and a live host walks you through it from there. 3. **Connect** – focused private rounds with Surrey people matched to you by age and quiz, with everything paced by a host so nothing drags, as every round is with someone selected for you by the quiz. 4. **Collect your mutual matches** – mutual selections are shared privately once the evening wraps, with unmatched selections never disclosed to anyone, and you follow up at your own speed from there. ⭐ *"Better than every app I have tried combined — better than every app I have tried"* – Surrey single --- ✨ The best conversations start somewhere — select your bracket and register and the evening takes care of itself in this round. The evening starts the moment you register. 🥰 ✨

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
