There’s no doubt that the Internet can be a great resource for technical information and solutions to the problems that you face. However, it can also be a source of misinformation, dead ends and a waste of precious time. That’s where AWS re:Post Q&A comes in.
Many IT professionals often first turn to a site like Stack Overflow or Petri that is a well-known and trusted resource with a broad user base to handle serious technical questions. In a similar vein, Amazon has created a new AWS re:Post service that provides a curated question and answer (Q&A) site that focuses on AWS issues.
AWS re:Post is a Q&A service for AWS resources and it is a part of the AWS Free Tier. It is an AWS-managed service that provides crowd-sourced, expert-reviewed answers to your technical questions about AWS. It is a replacement for the original AWS Forums. Some of the topic areas covered by AWS re:Port Q&As include:
As you can see, Amazon’s new re:Post Q&A board covers a wide range of services offered by AWS. Tags can be assigned to content to make it easier to find. Re:Post has many built-in tags but you can request more by submitting posts in the re:Post Discussion area.
Community Groups help organize members who are interested in common topics. A points system is used to rank members into six community tiers: Beginner, Rising Star, Star, Champion, Sage, and Fellow.
