Description

More event details available on Meetup.com PDXCloud page

We've got a special guest from Amazon Web Services who is going to give us a rundown of all the products and features that were announced two weeks ago at AWS re:Invent. And there were a lot! Undoubtedly, we'll want to dive deeper into some of these topics, so bring your questions. Since we'll have much to talk about, we're going to limit this meeting to a single presenter.

Our presenter: Khawaja Shams is the Head of Engineering for NoSQL at Amazon Web Services. He is a passionate distributed systems engineer, loves to code, and all it takes to distract him is a refreshing discussion around coding a new distributed systems app. Prior to joining Amazon, Khawaja led the Data Services team at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where he owned distributed systems for tactical operations of dozens of missions across NASA including the Curiosity Mars rover, Voyager, Deep Space Network, Cassini, and International Space Station. Khawaja owned development of the data processing pipelines for all Mars images as they are beamed back to earth and pushed out to global community of scientist, operators, as well as the public. @ksshams
