The annual event, which attracts over 60,000 technology experts to Las Vegas, Nevada, in the United States, is underway. AWS re: Invent is the annual event organized by Amazon Web Services (AWS) where new technology innovations, product launches and releases, breakout sessions by Amazon and Community leaders and members, including AWS Heroes, AWS Community Builders, AWS Solutions Architects, AWS Partners, and all industry experts share their knowledge of the solutions they have built using AWS technology and other related cloud technology.
Among all the sessions at re:Invent, some key sessions are quite important and should not be missed at re:Invent
- Keynotes
- Matt Garman (CEO at AWS)
- Peter DeSantis (SVP, Utility Computing, AWS)
- Dr. Swami Sivasubramanian (VP, AgenticAI, AWS)
- Dr. Ruba Borno (VP, Global Specialists and Partners, AWS)
- Dr. Werner Vogels (CTO, Amazon.com)
Keynote sessions are horizontal sessions that highlight key product releases, customer feedback, and hardware technology innovations that have been improved in the past year, and new technologies that will be launched in the coming year. New products, new features on existing products, and how partners are applying AWS technologies and services to solve problems from startups to enterprise businesses.
Other side attraction in re:Invent includes:
- Innovation Talks
- Certification Hub (to get certified at a discount)
- Community Hub (for builders, UG leaders)
