Honourable Commissioner of Science and Technology at Lagos State Government (2018-2023)
I was privileged to attend the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Summit on September 26, 2023, and the AWS Partner Summit on September 27 in Johannesburg, South Africa. The two summits bring together professionals, AWS partners, developers, startups, and cloud enthusiasts to learn about the latest trends, technologies, and innovations in cloud computing offered by Amazon Web Services. The diversity of attendees highlighted the broad appeal of AWS services across various industries and roles. The events featured a packed agenda, including keynote sessions, breakout sessions, workshops, and a bustling expo area. The summits covered various topics related to AWS services, best practices, and real-world use cases.
AWS executives, government officials, and business leaders spoke during the keynote sessions. The main takeaways are that AWS keeps innovating quickly by launching new features and services that help businesses create, deploy, and scale applications more effectively. AWS demonstrated its machine learning and artificial intelligence developments, emphasizing advantages such as Amazon SageMaker and AWS Lambda for AI.
The breakout sessions covered many topics, allowing attendees to deep-dive into specific areas of interest. The expo area featured booths from AWS, AWS partners and vendors showcasing their products and services that complement the AWS ecosystem. It was an excellent opportunity to learn about third-party solutions that can enhance AWS deployments. Attending the AWS Summit provided valuable insights into many areas, including the importance of a well-defined cloud strategy for organizations leveraging AWS services effectively. The ever-evolving nature of cloud computing underscores the importance of continuous learning and staying up to date with AWS offerings.
