Here at ServerlessToronto.org, we believe that panel discussions can create even more value for those attending the meetups. Our first Panel-style meetup had 9 #ServerlessTO community members prepare and execute the event!
It was not recorded (sorry Internet :) so that businesses we tried to help didn't need to worry about oversharing.

2. Why we do what we do?
2
Serverless is New Agile
Serverless Dev (gluing
other people’s APIs and
managed services)
We're obsessed by
creating business value
(meaningful MVPs,
products) and helping
Startups
We build bridges
between Serverless
Community (“Dev leg”),
and Front-end & Voice-
First folks (“UX leg”),
and empower UX
developers
Achieve agility NOT by
“sprinting” faster (like in
Scrum), but by working
smarter (by using
bigger building blocks
and less Ops)
3. Everybody's going to the cloud…

Gregor Hohpe, CxO Advisor
… But if you’re looking for a server to put in the
cloud you probably made the first major mistake,
because the cloud is NOT about infrastructure –
it's about changing the way you build & deploy
applications. Cloud is a different lifestyle, not a
replacement for your data center and no CIO
ever needed another data center…
… Try to follow the logic that you shouldn't run
applications you didn't build.
