Great News! We have set a date for the third Nottingham AWS Meetup.
When?
Monday, 20th April 2015.
Where?
Antenna Media Centre, Beck Street, Nottingham, NG1 1EQ.
What time?
18.30 – 20.00.
Why?
Chris Davidson, Operations Technical Lead at Reconnix, will talk about how Reconnix used AWS to create a cost-effective, hot standby solution for a client’s website. Taking the client from nothing to a full website in less than 10 minutes using CloudFormation.
The talk will also include a live failover of www.reconnix.com!
We’re also lucky to have a guest speaker: Steve Bowman. Steve is an experienced software developer with over 13 years commercial software development experience. He also runs the Amazon Web Services User Group for Hull & East Yorkshire.
Steve will give an overview of the AWS Lambda service which is currently in preview. This looks like a really exciting new service with all sorts of interesting possible uses.
There will be an introduction to what Lambda can do. How it works, and what it costs. This will also include some examples and demos of how you actually write a Lambda Function.
This will be followed by an interactive demo with fabulous prizes to be won!
Remember, if you know someone that might be interested in attending, sign them up and bring them along.
All in all, it’s going to be a great night. Sign up now and make it AWeSome.
