Leading Your Team Through a Cloud Transformation - Virtual Transformation Day...Amazon Web Services
Speaker: Thomas Blood
Moving to the cloud can help transform technical and non-technical aspects of your organization, enabling agility, scale, security, and cost savings. However, transformational change requires strong leadership at all levels of the organization. In this session, we will review strategies and best practices to help you lead the organization through a successful cloud journey.
AWS Transformation Day is designed for enterprise organizations looking to make the move to the cloud in order to become more responsive, agile and innovative, while still staying secure and compliant. Join us for this virtual event and we'll share our experiences of helping enterprise customers accelerate the pace of migration and adoption of strategic services.
We recommend this event for IT and business leaders who are looking to create sustainable benefits and a competitive advantage by using the AWS Cloud.
What IT Transformation Really Means for the EnterpriseTom Laszewski
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executive-level view of how the cloud removes the stressful burden of on-premise applications, legacy technology, and outdated processes from the enterprise.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.
Dal riconoscimento facciale al riconoscimento di frodi o difetti di fabbricazione, l'analisi di immagini e video che sfruttano tecniche di intelligenza artificiale, si stanno evolvendo e raffinando a ritmi elevati. In questo webinar esploreremo le possibilità messe a disposizione dai servizi AWS per applicare lo stato dell'arte delle tecniche di computer vision a scenari reali.
Lillian So, FinTech Account Manager, Singapore, AWS. Subin Subaiah, CEO, Spuul
When you operate at a planetary scale and serve a globally dispersed user base, traditional choices don’t work. In this session, have a look behind the scenes with Amazon. Hear about how different groups in Amazon use innovation frameworks to build out their businesses and operations.

Business asset based lending is more flexible and creative than other funding solutions. Loans, lines of credit, term loans or factoring financing can be acquired using any single business collateral that is free and clear of liens. So that means we can use and fund a loan against free and clear inventory, purchase orders, contracts, equipment, invoices or real estate. These are bridge loans with better rates and with terms of 30 days to 4 years.

Big Data per le Startup: come creare applicazioni Big Data in modalità Server...Amazon Web Services
La varietà e la quantità di dati che si crea ogni giorno accelera sempre più velocemente e rappresenta una opportunità irripetibile per innovare e creare nuove startup.
Tuttavia gestire grandi quantità di dati può apparire complesso: creare cluster Big Data su larga scala sembra essere un investimento accessibile solo ad aziende consolidate. Ma l’elasticità del Cloud e, in particolare, i servizi Serverless ci permettono di rompere questi limiti.
Vediamo quindi come è possibile sviluppare applicazioni Big Data rapidamente, senza preoccuparci dell’infrastruttura, ma dedicando tutte le risorse allo sviluppo delle nostre le nostre idee per creare prodotti innovativi.
Ora puoi utilizzare Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) per eseguire pod Kubernetes su AWS Fargate, il motore di elaborazione serverless creato per container su AWS. Questo rende più semplice che mai costruire ed eseguire le tue applicazioni Kubernetes nel cloud AWS.In questa sessione presenteremo le caratteristiche principali del servizio e come distribuire la tua applicazione in pochi passaggi
Vent'anni fa Amazon ha attraversato una trasformazione radicale con l'obiettivo di aumentare il ritmo dell'innovazione. In questo periodo abbiamo imparato come cambiare il nostro approccio allo sviluppo delle applicazioni ci ha permesso di aumentare notevolmente l'agilità, la velocità di rilascio e, in definitiva, ci ha consentito di creare applicazioni più affidabili e scalabili. In questa sessione illustreremo come definiamo le applicazioni moderne e come la creazione di app moderne influisce non solo sull'architettura dell'applicazione, ma sulla struttura organizzativa, sulle pipeline di rilascio dello sviluppo e persino sul modello operativo. Descriveremo anche approcci comuni alla modernizzazione, compreso l'approccio utilizzato dalla stessa Amazon.com.
Come spendere fino al 90% in meno con i container e le istanze spot Amazon Web Services
L’utilizzo dei container è in continua crescita.
Se correttamente disegnate, le applicazioni basate su Container sono molto spesso stateless e flessibili.
I servizi AWS ECS, EKS e Kubernetes su EC2 possono sfruttare le istanze Spot, portando ad un risparmio medio del 70% rispetto alle istanze On Demand.

OpsWorks Configuration Management: automatizza la gestione e i deployment del...Amazon Web Services
Con l'approccio tradizionale al mondo IT per molti anni è stato difficile implementare tecniche di DevOps, che finora spesso hanno previsto attività manuali portando di tanto in tanto a dei downtime degli applicativi interrompendo l'operatività dell'utente. Con l'avvento del cloud, le tecniche di DevOps sono ormai a portata di tutti a basso costo per qualsiasi genere di workload, garantendo maggiore affidabilità del sistema e risultando in dei significativi miglioramenti della business continuity.
AWS mette a disposizione AWS OpsWork come strumento di Configuration Management che mira ad automatizzare e semplificare la gestione e i deployment delle istanze EC2 per mezzo di workload Chef e Puppet.
Scopri come sfruttare AWS OpsWork a garanzia e affidabilità del tuo applicativo installato su Instanze EC2.

Vuoi conoscere le opzioni per eseguire Microsoft Active Directory su AWS? Quando si spostano carichi di lavoro Microsoft in AWS, è importante considerare come distribuire Microsoft Active Directory per supportare la gestione, l'autenticazione e l'autorizzazione dei criteri di gruppo. In questa sessione, discuteremo le opzioni per la distribuzione di Microsoft Active Directory su AWS, incluso AWS Directory Service per Microsoft Active Directory e la distribuzione di Active Directory su Windows su Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). Trattiamo argomenti quali l'integrazione del tuo ambiente Microsoft Active Directory locale nel cloud e l'utilizzo di applicazioni SaaS, come Office 365, con AWS Single Sign-On.
Amazon Web Services e VMware organizzano un evento virtuale gratuito il prossimo mercoledì 14 Ottobre dalle 12:00 alle 13:00 dedicato a VMware Cloud ™ on AWS, il servizio on demand che consente di eseguire applicazioni in ambienti cloud basati su VMware vSphere® e di accedere ad una vasta gamma di servizi AWS, sfruttando a pieno le potenzialità del cloud AWS e tutelando gli investimenti VMware esistenti.
Molte organizzazioni sfruttano i vantaggi del cloud migrando i propri carichi di lavoro Oracle e assicurandosi notevoli vantaggi in termini di agilità ed efficienza dei costi.
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.
Con l’ascesa delle architetture di microservizi e delle ricche applicazioni mobili e Web, le API sono più importanti che mai per offrire agli utenti finali una user experience eccezionale. In questa sessione impareremo come affrontare le moderne sfide di progettazione delle API con GraphQL, un linguaggio di query API open source utilizzato da Facebook, Amazon e altro e come utilizzare AWS AppSync, un servizio GraphQL serverless gestito su AWS. Approfondiremo diversi scenari, comprendendo come AppSync può aiutare a risolvere questi casi d’uso creando API moderne con funzionalità di aggiornamento dati in tempo reale e offline.
Inoltre, impareremo come Sky Italia utilizza AWS AppSync per fornire aggiornamenti sportivi in tempo reale agli utenti del proprio portale web.
Database Oracle e VMware Cloud™ on AWS: i miti da sfatareAmazon Web Services
Molte organizzazioni sfruttano i vantaggi del cloud migrando i propri carichi di lavoro Oracle e assicurandosi notevoli vantaggi in termini di agilità ed efficienza dei costi.
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.
In queste slide, gli esperti AWS e VMware presentano semplici e pratici accorgimenti per facilitare e semplificare la migrazione dei carichi di lavoro Oracle accelerando la trasformazione verso il cloud, approfondiranno l’architettura e dimostreranno come sfruttare a pieno le potenzialità di VMware Cloud ™ on AWS.
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) è un servizio di gestione dei container altamente scalabile, che semplifica la gestione dei contenitori Docker attraverso un layer di orchestrazione per il controllo del deployment e del relativo lifecycle. In questa sessione presenteremo le principali caratteristiche del servizio, le architetture di riferimento per i differenti carichi di lavoro e i semplici passi necessari per poter velocemente migrare uno o più dei tuo container.
Durante i laboratori pratici, gli esperti AWS ti mostrano quali strumenti aiutano a sviluppare le applicazioni Serverless in locale e nel cloud AWS e ti aiuteranno a programmare i prossimi passi per iniziare ad utilizzare questa tecnologia nella tua azienda.
AWS Serverless per startup: come innovare senza preoccuparsi dei serverAmazon Web Services
La tecnologia Serverless sembra essere perfetta per startup. Il modello di pricing “pay-per-use” e l’infrastruttura che non genera alcun costo in mancanza di traffico rende la struttura di costi estremamente economica ed efficiente per le startup. Inoltre, le architetture Serverless sono pienamente gestite e scalano automaticamente, per questo i team non devono preoccuparsi di improvvise crescite del traffico che, per esempio, possono derivare da campagne marketing di successo. Questi sono solo alcuni dei motivi per cui molte startup hanno deciso di costruire architetture Serverless a supporto del proprio business. Durante il webinar, approfondiremo i servizi Serverless di AWS e come le startup possono utilizzarli per aumentare agilità e innovazione. Approfondiremo il servizio AWS Lambda che permette di eseguire codice per qualunque tipologia di applicazione, senza alcun lavoro di “amministrazione”. Durante la sessione, condivideremo inoltre casi d’uso di startup che hanno implementato con successo la tecnologia Serverless.

60. The Mis-hire Challenge
”I think choosing great people is much more difficult than picking great markets
because we have always understood the technology and understood the markets.
Picking great people is a less than 50 percent proposition, and if you are right 52
percent of the time, they ought to build a statue to you.”*
—Don Valentine, Sequoia Capital
62. 1 – Always Be Hiring
“Great companies are not going to wait, they are
going to execute and hire talented candidates
opportunistically. They know that great engineers
are not tethered to a tech stack and can freely
move about from tech stack to tech stack in less
time than it takes a company to hire someone
that fits the exact specification.
—Thor Bucy, Rivera Partners.
64. 2 – Always keep your company vision
and values clear
“The culture is what creates the foundation for all future innovation……..if you
break the culture, you break the machine that creates your products.”
- Brian Chesky, CEO airbnb
65. 2 – Always keep your company vision
and values clear
“Our vision is to be earth's most customer centric company; to build a place where people can
come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online.”
Jeff Bezos, CEO and Founder, Amazon

75. 8 – Never compare candidates
"I'd rather interview 50 people and not hire anyone than hire the wrong person.”
- Jeff Bezos
76. 9 – Always ensure the right decision is
made
1. Performance bar - Is the
person better than 50% of the
current team
2. Long Term Impact - Does this
candidate have upside growth
potential to have long-term
impact?
77. 10 - Finally, always give all candidates a great
experience regardless of outcome
