AWS re:Invent 2023 - Keynote with Dr. Werner Vogels

[@sats_nak]

As always, Dr. Werner's keynotes are the annual re:Invent stand out - love it.

As a Brazilian, I feel very proud to see Cat Swetel from NU show case what it took to implement PIX using AWS systems. PIX is definitely a 'systemic level change' implemented by the unpartitioned Brazilian government. It has truly made access to bank accounts and transfers more accessible and instantaneous to everyone. It's something the US and European countries should pay more attention to.

BRASIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷💜

My dude is melting. Give the poor man an A.C

[@AggroZilla]

Vintage Vogels though! Is it even a keynote if our guy’s NOT sweating buckets?? 🪣

[@dexterchan9319]

Thanks Dr Vogels. this year keynote is more interesting than last year. It inspired us how to establish best practice and give back to the community as a technologist.

0:51 Perl joke 41:18 story about Amsterdam and behaviour 1:05:30 fun jab at Larry Ellison such a warm, charismatic figure

[@Anbu_Sampath]

The story of Thorn is great example of practical AI. We need to use tech advancement to make world as better place to live. Solve the current problems instead of imaginary problems.

[@mambofornasa]

What NuBank have done in Brazil is awesome. I think part of it can be replicated in Kenya. This was a great presentation overall.

[@JJ-rn9zl]

msee, wanna make it together

[@Appelsappel]

Werner looking healthy, I like it

[@Bill0102]

The profound knowledge in this content is striking. A book with akin insights nurtured a big change in my mindset. "AWS Unleashed: Mastering Amazon Web Services for Software Engineers" by Harrison Quill

[@christian-bonzelet]

Oh my god. Having two little kids…the story of Thorn touches me deeply. We try to educate our kids at best to encourage them to raise their voice. But knowing that so many kids get no help breaks my heart. Hope Thorn is able to scale to help even more kids.

[@sprattipati2000]

Thanks for emphasis on cost , and wish this is baked in resources like CW OAM index based search and a mechanism to view cost of metrics

[@inigokintana]

min 61:28 , that cost to build vs cost to operate graph is fantastic - I wish I could have it some years back when arguing with one of my bosses

[@trevspires]

LOL - "Can I get some free credits???!?" "No"

[@pankaj16octdogra]

I really like CTO entry and announcement

[@nikensonmidi8084]

I love this. I want to be in the next one.

[@Create-The-Imaginable]

That has always been Werner's Residual Self Image! 😀 His mental projection of his digital self!

[@CalifornianViking]

I love it when technologists step outside their domain and think like economists. Economics is the study of constrained resources, and we have a lot of constraints in the world of computers. Dr. Vogels did a great job explaining this, but he is unfortunately late to the table. For too many years, we have been consuming cloud services like they are free and have no sustainability impact. Dr. Vogels should have shown the example of energy consumption and the power of Rust many years ago - this is not something new. We seriously need to behave like frugal architects. For example, we need to question if microservices are always the right architecture. I am happy to see that AWS is more transparent in this area. Microservices can be great, but it may not be great for everything. The same is also true for SQL vs NoSQL databases - I see that AWS is finally getting on the right track.

[@sprattipati2000]

Vpc endpoint is another resource to be affordable since this is strong requirement for majority clients

[@robertlemiesz7143]

what is the transition song, that is great

[@wolverine047]

I have a Perl Program and an Erlang Program that I wrote 20 Years ago. I don't need to migrate them to the "PUBLIC CLOUD"

[@dreamtheater_92]

The Spinal Tap joke was great, but you need to know your audience. Most of the attendees are under 45 and have never seen the movie.

[@GSmith215]

I’m over 45 and never seen it

[@dreamtheater_92]

@@GSmith215 my point exactly.

[@robertlemiesz7143]

I’m under 35 and got the reference

[@mambofornasa]

that joke flew over my head so...

[@fcaspergerrainman]

he lost weight, good for him

[@Lemnatec]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4W1c4mGq9-nb9k Great to see our technology working at IRRI!

[@SCKWorld-vv7te]

Does anyone recall the name of the Quartet that played before the Keynote?

[@martinbeeby]

The Cattus Quartet

[@masthan001]

as usual, proles loving and cheering dystopian tech!

[@sprattipati2000]

Cost of reliability

[@russellf5832]

Good talk very dynamic! I still like to own my car not lease it.

[@fredylg]

not that Oracle hahaahha

[@trailerhaul8200]

He looks like he lost some weight. Good for him

What’s a cheap matrix re-enactment 😅

[@mariacristinaarezzi]

Hello

[@RohanKumar-vx5sb]

First

[@nitin_puranik]

Spotted the first loser.

[@DanKeeley]

LOL what on earth am i watching

[@stochastic84]

So they make you completely dependent on them for hardware/computing, then jack up the prices and tell you to be frugal lol. Our computing overlords have arrived. Enjoy the bait and switch. Sustainable for Amazon's coffers.

[@AintLoose_60]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqmniZWwh5psY6s OVH Cloud is better than AWS

[@SmartFocusprime]

He is not audible, time to get someone to do this keynote.

[@JH-bb8in]

AWS is really for boomers now - they are years behind Azure and Google in AI

[@jeffdeng1652]

Obviously you are not up to date

[@MT-vh6hd]

LOOOOOL

[@samuelakowuahnimoh8267]

unnecessary AI use cases are not years ahead. Going forward in the wrong direction is going backwards

[@codephisher]

You missed the ship 🚀

[@samjackgreen]

I'd say AWS tend to win the long game

[@wrjacqmein]

Great presentation and a band intro via the shirt choice (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_Sweeper_Social_Club).
