Every year, we’re excited to bring our customers together to network, engage, and learn more about AWS.
To help make this happen at AWS re:Invent 2016, we’ve lined up over 450 breakout sessions in nearly 20 tracks focused on key areas you care about, including infrastructure tracks in areas like compute, storage, and databases, tracks that focus on exciting technologies like artificial intelligence and serverless, and tracks that focus on the latest solutions in areas like security, big data, and mobile applications, among many others
Each track includes sessions for introductory, advanced and expert technical levels.
New this year are the re:Source mini conferences so you can dive deeper on popular topics, such as Machine Learning, IoT, and Containers. For those of you who are interested in industry specific topics like life sciences, media and entertainment, or public sector, we invite you to attend the industry focus pre-day to learn the specifics of how you can deploy on AWS.
