👋 Hello AWS User Group Community! Join us on Wednesday, 20th May 2026, for our May meetup at the AWS Singapore Office, IOI Central Boulevard! We’re bringing the community together again for an evening of sharing, learning, and connecting — stay tuned as we finalise the session lineup 👀 📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th May 2026 🕡 Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: AWS Singapore; 2 Central Blvd, IOI Central Boulevard East Towers, Level 5 🎤 **Meetup Track** ✅ **Lessons Learned Deploying an LLM-Powered Knowledge Assistant** 📌 Speaker: Hairizuan Noorazman, DevOps Engineer Engineering teams often lose time navigating fragmented Jira and Confluence documentation. To address this, an LLM-powered chatbot was built on AWS — using ECR, EKS, and Amazon Bedrock. The initial RAG approach quickly surfaced critical issues such as data leakage in vector stores, prompt injection, and broken access controls. This session breaks down these failure modes and explores a pivot to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Atlassian, allowing queries over live data instead of duplicating it. Attendees will gain practical insights into RAG vs MCP trade-offs and a reference AWS architecture for building safer LLM systems. ✅ **Kiro IDE Best Practices in SDLC and Scrum Sprint DevSecOps** 📌 Speaker: Tim Wu, Senior GTM Specialist SA AI/ML An AI-powered development environment that embeds enterprise standards directly into your workflow. See how Kiro transforms traditional SDLC approaches through its Five-Element Architecture, making compliance, security, and best practices automatic rather than afterthoughts. Kiro provides ready-to-use configurations that enforce guardrails while accelerating development. This session focuses on live demonstrations to show you exactly how steering files, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP integrations work together in real enterprise scenarios. ✅ **Running AI agents that control computers: AWS architecture for sandboxed autonomous execution** 📌 Speaker: Sahil Sharma, Applied AI Enthusiast Agents that browse, click, and type need more than an API call- they need isolated sandboxes, warm container pools, and an architecture that scales. This deep dive covers how 14 AWS services come together to run autonomous computer-use agents safely and fast in production. 📢 **IMPORTANT! Registration Information** To ensure a smooth check-in process, please take note of the following: ✅ ✅ Confirmed attendees will receive a confirmation email before the event titled *"**AWS User Group Singapore: Registration Confirmed for AWS User Group Meetup – May 2026**."* You must present this email at the Level 2 Concierge to gain access to Level 5 for attendance verification. 🚶 Walk-ins (those without a confirmation email) will only be considered if the venue has not reached full capacity. Priority will be given to registered attendees with confirmation emails. 🔒 Strictly enforced: No confirmation email = walk-in. Entry not guaranteed. 💡 **Pro Tip:** Arrive early to avoid queues and secure your seat for the sharing sessions! Additional Highlights: 🍕 Pizza Time: Begin your evening with some delicious pizza at 6:30 PM, courtesy of our generous sponsor, AWS. Vegetarian and halal options will be available. 🍻 Post-Meetup Networking: Stick around for casual networking over drinks. Let’s forge new connections and continue the conversations! 🎁 AWS Swag & Promo Codes: Don’t miss the chance to win exclusive AWS swag and promo codes.

Hello Gophers! Our **Build Your Own Macropad: From Soldering to Software** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. All attendees will require a separate ticket, as a keyboard kit will be provided for you to take home. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg). Workshop description follows: In this hands-on workshop, you'll go from a pile of parts to a fully functional, custom macropad. The morning is dedicated to soldering your hardware, and the afternoon is all about bringing it to life using TinyGo. A proven experience from Japan — the TinyGo Keeb Tour has successfully hosted 10 events across various cities since 2024, helping participants build their own zero-kb02 keyboards. Now, they're bringing this experience to Singapore! New to soldering? No problem! The team will be right there to guide you through every step. There are plenty of spare parts, so there's no need to worry about making mistakes — it's all part of the learning process. ### Full Curriculum #### Meet the zero-kb02 The zero-kb02 isn't just a simple keypad — it's a powerful, programmable controller designed for versatility. You'll be building and coding with: * **Brain:** Powered by the RP2040 microcontroller * **Controls:** 12 keys for your favorite shortcuts * **Interaction:** A Joystick and a Rotary Encoder for intuitive navigation * **Visuals:** An OLED Display and RGB LEDs to show status and add flair #### Endless Possibilities with TinyGo Beyond a simple keypad, the zero-kb02 is a gateway to embedded development. With the extensive documentation and the power of TinyGo, you can transform it into: * **Musical Instruments:** Create a buzzer-based synth or a MIDI controller * **Gadgets:** Build a weather station using I2C sensors and the OLED display * **Gaming:** Run 2D games using koebiten (a TinyGo-friendly subset of Ebitengine) * **Fully Customizable Keyboard:** It's Vial-compatible, allowing you to remap keys and change settings directly from your web browser #### Morning: Soldering Workshop You'll assemble your own zero-kb02 from scratch — soldering the RP2040 microcontroller, keys, joystick, rotary encoder, OLED display, and RGB LEDs. Expert staff will guide you through every step. #### Afternoon: Programming with TinyGo With your macropad assembled, you'll bring it to life with TinyGo firmware. Learn how to program key mappings, control the OLED display, drive RGB LEDs, and read the joystick and rotary encoder — all in Go. By the end of the day, you'll leave with a custom keyboard that you built and programmed yourself. See you there! Cheers, GoSG for GopherConSG 2026

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!
