If you can’t make it to this year’s AWS re:Invent conference in Las Vegas on Nov. 28 – Dec. 2 but you still want to learn more about Amazon Web Services, you might consider attending this year’s AWS Innovate conference. Unlike AWS re:Invent, which is an in-person event (and is also a bit pricy), AWS Innovate is an entirely free virtual conference.
AWS Innovate is a one-day virtual event that’s scheduled for Wednesday, September 28, 2022. The conference is designed to help IT pros interested in developing the skills required to deploy and operate infrastructure and applications.
The virtual event will feature various high-profile AWS execs discussing what you can do with the platform. The list of featured speakers includes Tiffany Wissner, Product Marketing General Manager, Rodrigo Gazzaneo, Storage Specialist, Ali Spittel, Developer Advocacy Manager, and more.
