Keynote: What Transformation Really Means for the Enterprise - AWS Transforma...Amazon Web Services
Digital transformation means something new every decade. This sort of constant change is stressful for any organization, but especially for the large enterprise. Because while nearly every enterprise began as a small, scrappy team, success means growth, and growth means accumulation—more technology, more processes, more people, and more red tape.
In this session, we’ll give an executive-level view of how the cloud removes the stressful burden of on-premise applications, legacy technology, and outdated processes from the enterprise. We’ll examine what digital transformation really means, and offer prescriptive guidance around decluttering the enterprise, security, culture, and more.
AWS enables every enterprise to invest in strategic innovation and modernization. With the AWS cloud, enterprises become more agile, more efficient, and are better equipped to keep pace with constant change. As a partner, AWS enables every enterprise to live its own version of the Amazon Story—one of growth without burdensome accumulation, success without slowness, and constant innovation.
The keynote presentation discusses how enterprises can transform by leveraging cloud technologies. It outlines some of the challenges enterprises face from changing customer expectations and increased competition. However, enterprises also have existing advantages like knowledge, employees, resources, and customers. The presentation discusses how the cloud can help enterprises gain technical flexibility and speed while ensuring security and compliance. It provides examples of how companies from different industries have leveraged the cloud for innovation and transformation. The presentation emphasizes the importance of having the right culture and organizational structures to support innovation and change.

The document discusses strategies for efficiently raising a seed round of funding. It begins by establishing ground rules for fundraising, such as dedicating one person to fundraising full-time and fundraising in parallel rather than sequentially. It also discusses crafting an effective fundraising narrative in 20 seconds or less that communicates what the company does, its most compelling feature, progress to date and future milestones. The document then covers prospecting an initial funnel of potential investors by working backwards from an ideal cap table structure.
The Authority to Operate (ATO) on AWS program aims to accelerate clients through compliance. Rather than spending months manually building compliant environments, now cloud automation can build audit-ready environments in hours. When compliance is automated, it becomes easy; however, codifying an environment is a profound change for many organizations. Existing tools, techniques, and technologies do not directly translate to the cloud. In this session, we’ll discuss the vision of the ATO on AWS program and demonstrate how compliance can be automated. You’ll learn about the benefits of automating compliant workloads in the cloud and how codifying accelerates security without sacrificing reliability.

La migrazione di questi carichi di lavoro, può creare complessità durante la modernizzazione e il refactoring delle applicazioni e a questo si possono aggiungere rischi di prestazione che possono essere introdotti quando si spostano le applicazioni dai data center locali.
Crea la tua prima serverless ledger-based app con QLDB e NodeJSAmazon Web Services
Molte aziende oggi, costruiscono applicazioni con funzionalità di tipo ledger ad esempio per verificare lo storico di accrediti o addebiti nelle transazioni bancarie o ancora per tenere traccia del flusso supply chain dei propri prodotti.
Alla base di queste soluzioni ci sono i database ledger che permettono di avere un log delle transazioni trasparente, immutabile e crittograficamente verificabile, ma sono strumenti complessi e onerosi da gestire.
Amazon QLDB elimina la necessità di costruire sistemi personalizzati e complessi fornendo un database ledger serverless completamente gestito.
In questa sessione scopriremo come realizzare un'applicazione serverless completa che utilizzi le funzionalità di QLDB.
