Podcasts about aws opsworks

When Jonathan Weiss, a German technical lead, sold his startup to AWS 13 years ago, he thought he was going to spend all of his time in software development. Instead, it was a more encompassing, dynamic role that would also let him connect with customers, take on complex problems, and eventually thrive within a culture of innovation and ownership. Today, he leads over 2,600 developers in Berlin, and what keeps him up at night is the creative freedom AWS affords him. From Startup to AWS: A Founder's Journey, Jonathan Weiss His journey began in Berlin, where he co-founded a startup to simplify cloud management for businesses. The timing was perfect; AWS was in its infancy, and there was a glaring need for tools to help startups migrate to the cloud. Weiss recalls, "We saw the same problem over and over, helping companies deploy their applications and manage their workloads." The solution was a cloud management tool which attracted the attention of AWS leadership, then and now CEO Andy Jassy. Soon after pitching their idea - and the potential of Berlin as a hub for development - the startup was acquired, its product evolving into AWS OpsWorks, still a core service today. What kept him at AWS long after the acquisition is its very particular culture. "I stayed because of a feeling of agency," he says. "At AWS, whether it's the CEO or an intern, if you've got a good idea, people will listen." The Power of Ownership and Decentralization The AWS culture emphasizes ownership from top to bottom. "It's not an infrequent occurrence for somebody to come to me with a challenge and say, 'Amazon should do this,'" he reports. "My response is always, 'Who is this Amazon person you're talking about? If you see the problem, propose the solution." This is an ethos of accountability and empowerment throughout the organization. The organization is decentralized, almost in some ways like startups within the greater AWS ecosystem. Each team owns their products, their roadmap, and their customer satisfaction to make sure it's all very agile and creative. "It's possible to be incredibly creative at AWS because of this autonomy. We push decisions as close to the problem as possible, trusting those who understand the customer best to make the right calls." A Startup Mentality in a Global Giant Despite its scale, AWS retains the entrepreneurial spirit of a startup. According to him, his role hasn't really changed much since his days as one of the founders of a startup: "The only thing I don't do anymore is clean the toilets," he jokes. Beyond that, he's still deeply involved in customer relations, product development, and cross-functional collaboration. At AWS, wearing several hats is not only encouraged but expected. "We don't work in silos. If the task at hand requires marketing expertise or legal input, you step in and contribute. The end goal is always the same: make the customer happy." This strongly contrasts with the rigid traditional corporate environment where well-defined roles and responsibilities choke innovation. "At AWS, there's no 'not my job' mentality," he asserts. "Everyone is empowered to solve problems, no matter their title or role." Creativity Meets Practicality Asked if it is possible to remain creative within a large organization, he uses the decentralized nature of AWS as an enabler. "Our teams are small and independent, which enables us to experiment and have fast iterations," he says. "We encourage ourselves to think big, but start small with iterated learning from customer feedback." A case in point is PartyRock, which started life as an internal tool for experimenting with generative AI models. "It started off as a side project to help our team understand large language models, but it quickly gained traction within AWS, and we decided to launch it publicly." Today, hundreds of thousands of users are building AI-driven apps on PartyRock, from vacation planners to soccer team managers. "This sort of bottom-up innovation is wh...

In this session, learn how AWS is helping enterprises adopt the DevOps model and automation in their journey to the cloud. By using the DevOps principle to treat your infrastructure environments as code, you can automate and easily scale your lifecycle environments. Learn how services like AWS CloudFormation and AWS OpsWorks enable you to automate your instance provisioning and configurations as code, ensuring consistent, compliant, and scalable cloud infrastructure. Understand how OpsWorks is enabling enterprises to accelerate their migration to the cloud, leveraging popular tools like Chef or Puppet and their respective communities. Please join us for a speaker meet-and-greet following this session at the Speaker Lounge (ARIA East, Level 1, Willow Lounge). The meet-and-greet starts 15 minutes after the session and runs for half an hour.

Using the DevOps model to treat your infrastructure environments as code enables you to automate and scale your development and production environments. Companies such as Puppet and Chef have built popular infrastructure automation solutions and have a thriving community interested in helping others succeed. AWS OpsWorks helps you succeed in using Puppet and Chef on AWS by removing the undifferentiated heavy lifting. In this session, discover how OpsWorks helps you focus on the core task of configuration management using Puppet and Chef, by setting up and maintaining your environment in just a few clicks.

This session provides an overview of how Change Healthcare invested in people, process, and an automation platform to adopt a cloud-first strategy. Starting from building a Cloud Center of Excellence team, they identified the compliance, security, and cost optimization requirements and process required to build a framework. They also embedded healthcare compliance, security, architecture best practices, and customer-specific rules and standards for a managed adoption of the cloud. Change Healthcare is leveraging their Cloud 2.0 framework to rapidly deploy their mission applications into AWS. Come learn how Change Healthcare built a serverless architecture using Amazon ECS, AWS Lambda, AWS CodeDeploy, AWS CodeCommit, AWS CloudFormation, AWS Service Catalog, AWS OpsWorks, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, and other managed services.

In this episode Simon discusses AWS OpsWorks with Amir Golan, Senior Product Manager. They discuss what it can do, how customers use it - and its strengths in fleet management. https://aws.amazon.com/opsworks/

To ensure that your application operates in a predictable manner in both your test and production environments, you must vigilantly maintain the configuration of your resources. By leveraging configuration management solutions, Dev and Ops engineers can define the state of their resources across their entire lifecycle. In this session, we will show you how to use AWS OpsWorks, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CodePipeline to build a reliable and consistent development pipeline that assures your production workloads behave in a predictable manner.
