This year’s AWS re:Invent conference is taking place from Nov. 29 through Dec. 3, 2021 at the Venetian Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. The re:Invent conference is the biggest AWS event of the year. Unlike last year’s conference which was only online, this year’s re:Invent is a hybrid event that is both in-person and online. AWS re:Invent in-person attendees needed to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and wear masks.
Adam Selipsky, AWS CEO provided this year’s keynote where he looked back at the impact of cloud computing. Selipsky explained, “In the 15 years since we launched AWS, the cloud has become not just another tech revolution, but an enabler of a fundamental shift in the way that businesses actually function. There’s no industry that hasn’t been touched, and no business that can’t be radically disrupted.”
