AWS Community Day Kochi 2019 - A day long fun-filled learning!

AWS Community Day Kochi 2019 was the last one in the AWS Community Day India 2019 Series but the energy, excitement have increased manifold to be part of the first ever AWS Community Day hosted in God's own country.

AWS Community Day Kochi 2019 was very impressive with best agenda.

A 24 hour trip from home to back home was wonderful and experienced wide variety of talks in two parallel tracks and SageMaker & Serverless Workshops.

Keynote

Keynote needs no special mention as it was delivered by none other than Madhusudan, the power house of unlimited tech tales. 

Well, I also got to speak on CI / CD using AWS Developer Tools.

Workshops

Hands on workshop on AWS Amplify & AWS Sagemaker were highlight of the day with two super mentors Prashanth HN & Shajee Pulukkool.

A special mention to the organizers for getting Women's T-Shirt for the women volunteers & speakers. Even the AWS re:Invent didn't give women's T-shirt either in the certification lounge or during the re-play party.

Malayalam is always music to the years! Enjoyed that melody and packed freshly fried Banana chips for the kids.

What day is it today ? A Mandatory Pic with Rashmi!

First met Rashmi Nambiar, the most dynamic & lively person at AWS re:Invent 2018 and later in AWS Summit in Mumbai & every AWS Community Day across India.
Posing together for a pic has become mandatory!

Fundamentals of Cloud Computing & AWS @ VCET, Erode

Vacation to hometown sometimes turns to be an interaction with budding engineers. I was super excited to present on Fundamentals of #CloudComputing & #AWS at Velalar College of Engineering and Technology, Erode based on the invite from Dr. Shakila Mathew , my mentor since 1996. I am sure that the spark you have ignited years ago is glowing now. Thank you, mam! 

It was indeed great conversation with Principal, Dr.M.Jayarama & Head of Computer Science department,  Dr.S.Jabeen Begum. https://lnkd.in/f8ptTtz

I had touched upon the following topics and the Slide Deck can be found here 

1. Introduction to Cloud Computing
2. Fundamentals of AWS
3. Amazon Core Services
4. Learning to Build on #awscloud
5. My Journey
