re:Invent 2018 ... There's Always Room for More CloudFormation and Containers
Here's a few of the sessions I'm planning on attending.
Containers
CON214: Mythical Mysfits: Monolith to Microservice with Docker and AWS Fargate
A foundational container workshop with AWS's managed container service. I'm hoping to discover a few tricks to modernizing legacy apps.
WIN314: Modernize Your First Windows Application with Windows Containers
Grab your .Net app and shove it into a Windows Container ... in 60 minutes or less. Go!
CON306: Observability for Modern Applications
Monitoring, tracking, logging, etc for composite applications. It's challenging to get visibility across all the components of your application when they turn into a bunch of microservices.
CON210: Security for Containers on ECS
Security ... need I say any more. OK I will ... I'm very interested to understand how things are different in container land. For example patching a container is a much different process flow than the traditional server OS update process.
Automation
ENT223: Discover & Migrate at Scale with AWS Migration Hub & Application Discovery Service
All about making the most of AWS migration tools to discover and migrate a large chunk of servers.
DEV308: Earn Your DevOps Black Belt
Well, if I have to get a black belt it might as well be a DevOps one! In this session the focus is on hooking up CloudFormation with your deployment pipeline.
DEV335: Hands-On with Advanced AWS CloudFormation
And ... more CloudFormation! CloudFormation must be like Jell-O ... there's always room for more.
Well, that's my plan for the week and I'm sure I'm going to learn a lot. Feel free to drop me some comments and thanks for reading! See you in Vegas.
