👋 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.

Hello Gophers! Our **Ultimate Software Design and Engineering** workshop will be held on **20 May 2026**, before our GopherCon Singapore 2026 conference. Ardan Labs' popular Ultimate Software Design class is back for probably the final year! We've specially requested for William Kennedy to continue teaching this class, because we believe that strong fundamentals would be even more necessary than ever in the age of AI. You can buy tickets for the conference and this workshop at our [GopherCon Singapore 2026 website](https://2026.gophercon.sg/). Workshop description follows: This class teaches you how to engineer production-level software in Go leveraging the power of a domain-driven, data-oriented architecture that can run in Kubernetes. From the beginning, you will pair-program and read code with the instructor as he walks through the design philosophies and guidelines for engineering software in Go. With each new feature that is discussed, you will learn how to think about, read, maintain, manage, and debug code. The core of this class is to teach you how to handle and reduce the spread of complexity in the systems you are building. If one of your biggest challenges is maintaining consistent coding standards across your codebase, maybe because team members have different levels of Go experience and are coming from different programming backgrounds, this course is for you. You will learn a set of idiomatic coding standards that everyone can adopt and apply to your existing projects. #### What a student is expected to learn: ##### Deploy First Mentality: We begin to focus on service design with a focus on the ability to maintain, manage, and debug the service in Kubernetes. * Design Philosophy, Guidelines, What to Expect * Project Layers, Policies, and Guidelines * Prepare Project ##### Domain-Driven, Data-Oriented Architecture: We talk about the data-driven, data-oriented architecture. We discuss the design philosophy, guidelines, and semantics of how the three layers of App, Business, and Storage work together. * Architecture Review * Applying and Implementing Firewalls * Data Flow Trust vs Non-Trust * Data Shaping and Data Validation * Developer Isolation with Domains * Extending Functionality through Composition

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!
