Road to re:Invent - Reserved Seating Opening

52 minute read | Last updated 15-Oct-2019 |  AWS, AWS re:Invent, Livestream

AWS re:Invent is absolutely massive. The only way to keep things somewhat organized is to use a reserved seating system for sessions. That system opened today and I live streamed the ins and outs of booking seats for various events.

Bad Robot Transcript

We are going to get going and just a second here but a minute and a half before we go live for reinvent open seating. There we go. That’s how my day’s been going like always we had a Canadian Thanksgiving fantastic time just disconnected. But of course ridiculous of me, and that’s ridiculous me had the nerve to fire up macOS Catalina on my system.

Guess what then go smoothly upgrade to Catalina. So I’m seeing some things that are challenging and all that kind of stuff. But it seems like in fact for double streaming here. We are streaming to LinkedIn Periscope on Twitter. I have both open I think both are working at give me a second here to see if I can get this course.

I can’t move Twitter. So I have both open. Both are working. Give me a second. Sears at double-a, I don’t have that app installed either right now. Normally, I have a Sound Source installed and which would let me actually mute Twitter. Let me see if I can do that questions minutes before I live or reinvent.

I miss is the the idea of being able to install your eyes are not installed at set up your Oh and there were still going so we had this ability to preset that we had the ability to preset. Give me a second one more time here Twitter. There we go.

Okay. Thank you for bearing with me so I can see the comments on Twitter comments in Periscope. I can see LinkedIn have if you have questions we go through this let me know Chris has the absolute 100% thing. Correct? One year behind in Mac OS a because you’re still getting security updates the way to go as opposed to living on the Edge and Lita this time I waited for the ga this morning.

So I’m seeing all this stuff going which is great. So if you have questions fire on periscope Twitter if I don’t get back to you right away ping me on one of those again and I will try to Indy degraded into the stream is that these new permissions are absolutely fantastic, but they’re also killing me every time you want to do something at ask for permissions now, I’m extremely granular.

Nice to know I was just telling me it won’t be able to do anything until I passed that off. So here we go. Can we get let me get back on track. I am sorry. I am discombobulated this re-emphasizes the smarter strategy of waiting and not upgrading your OS we have been doing these dreams pretty constantly over the last few weeks.

You can go to the pager drop the Lincoln Lincoln Channel ready to talk about what’s going on with the series 2 lamp 2 on Serverless to stuff like that right reserved seating used ability to book in two different sessions at reinvent. The majority of the sessions are handled by reserved seating, which means if you don’t have a lockdown seat, you’re going to be waiting in line.

I think it’s ten or fifteen percent of pretty sure it’s 10% of section space is reserved for walk-ups. The problem with that is that you’re in line to wait to get that walk up so I can be kind of challenging you really want to make sure you lock down a seat, which is why we’re on the stream live tonight number of things that were published on the 8th of you are going to see under the main menu here.

You will see the AWS gyro guys. This is a set of guides written by myself in a number of other Heroes 2 walkthrough sessions that we think are going to really be fantastic Community. He did this Advanced serverless guide. I love that Margaret did the introvert’s guide. It’s fantastic.

Put on so we click on Eric’s Advance Services guide you here a bit about Eric himself, essentially all you need to know he’s a butt you scroll down and you start to see what he’s recommending. Right? So he’s talking about your framing this pretty straightforward about he talked about early on in serverless and how its Advanced overtime and it’s and it’s it’s evolved and then he’s giving you these things like, okay.

Let’s check out the compute leadership session is fantastic sessions. But if you want an advanced education and serverless, these are the ones you really should line up with and if she’s got a great intro video that explains who she is her expertise experience, and then she goes down. So if you’re a newbie, here’s a great way to get started start with deep racer, but then how to be success successful become a machine-learning developer to help you guys make sense of the craziness.

That is the AWS reinvent session catalog. I need to do better at this but I’ll show you the video back when my tech actually worked as opposed to what’s happening today since last year’s was like here’s what you should do Monday Tuesday Wednesday. What I did this time was set up and said here’s what I want to do.

So if you want to hear is a bunch of topics, Embassy building blocks of a bunch of topics right and so on and so forth and I think that helps you understand the goals of security server Heroes broken their guy down in a different way, whatever makes the most sense for them in the way they see their space but these are fantastic ways to get a handle on what’s going on.

I’m just checking the background for different, Once again, hit me up on LinkedIn if you eat dinner Twitter Periscope, I if you have any comments as we’re going I think the LinkedIn stream is still going you never know with this stuff. It’s always dicey, but I am recording this behind the scenes at least.

I hope it looks like my LinkedIn is actually Frozen. We’ll see if it’s still going to double-check. Through this but with the gyro guys, we have this all set and that’s a recommendation but they took it a step further switched over to the 80s reinvent session catalog. You have to log into flag sessions are the book them.

Now. Unfortunately, it’s really hard to build a calendar out until 6 minutes from now when reserved seating opens up been recommending what you see me is sessions of Interest. So you have all the breakdown of the initial codes here. There are at least the prefix codes or a suffix codes as well Dash are as a repeated session.

I’m so that section is offered multiple times has a leadership sessions of a sort of the Seminole use the flag in the ground is where we are is where we’re going and then jackasses sponsored sections are sponsored by at 8 p.m. Partners. I’m actually giving to sponsored sessions on behalf of Trend Micro, but those are Dash ass and it’s also in description of the last Procession to make sure you want to go to that we can see we have some activities under the category.

I am not going to eat wings because that is not a good idea for me because I’ll get a little competitive and I’m really trying to watch my diet so I can get rid of the extra chicken arts and crafts. I totally want to do the movie night actually some flag of that.

Red ball dodgeball all this great stuff, right? So ideal you’ve gone through the catalog already in flag things that you’re interested in super cool heroes who did guides are filters. We’re filters in the catalog. So if I want to see what Eileen did I can just click on Eileen and it’s going to filter everything out for what Eileen did now I don’t think we’re guide is live right now, which is unfortunate.

But if we scroll down to me, I’m a filter and then you get all the sessions that I flag that I thought were cool. There’s two in here that I do not get in on time for the guy because they were added later in the day that I think it’s worth calling out in the three minutes before we So I got to clear my filter.

So that’s the one thing while you’re doing this to make sure you if you do a new sir. So I search for SEC 212 responsible disclosure with AWS security looks fantastic. The session on its own is great. The fact that Twitter is one of the speakers someone’s going to regret that decision.

It’s not going to be the audience. This is going to be an epic talk make sure to track that down. The best speakers on security is giving a toxic to 316 Bridget Johnson Senior manager do to be outside speaker access attribute-based access control is super amazing. Is it the Fantastic security topic I wanted to add this into the guy wasn’t able to push it in because of the deadlines cuz we’re trying to get this stuff up and running so we’ve got three 2 minutes and I’m hoping I’m going to keep reloading my LinkedIn stream in the background is LinkedIn doesn’t want to see if you need them.

So please hit me up on the comments for their let me see if that works. I did unpause God go through in the background. So yeah, if you were on LinkedIn give me the comments. If you’re here on Periscope hit me up in the comments. Are you just meet me at Mark and see a happy to answer anything as we go? We have two minutes basically before this loads up and we’re allowed to actually book sessions.

So there’s a first-come-first-serve basis. There’s a few things you need to be aware of that. I can cover actually already watch the how to reinvent episode on reserved seating and Jill did a great job of covering what the restrictions are and why they’re they are all cover them again in the last 2 minutes before this goes live that is too close to another session in another building travel time is locked into the calendar.

So no matter how fast you think you can get from a building has determined the minimum travel times and they’ve been forced them in the catalog is they don’t want you rushing around for your own sake for a bunch of these different sections. So you will not be able to come up with a warning and say hey you can’t make the conflict.

If you are if you have sent a another book seat or are on a waiting list for something in a conflicting time slot. You will not be able to do that book something for 9 a.m. On Monday and be on the waiting list for 9 a.m. Monday or onto waiting list at the same time.

You have one shit basically to put down in each of those time slots. So that’s really important to remember we got about 30 seconds here before this goes like all these sessions that you were interested in is because there’s this interests button or section on the side. This is going to allow you to book this easier.

So it looks like it’s live right now should already have a seat in this one. I am the speaker. I’m going to say I don’t need the book that I but this one I believe is yeah, this is Tim session Timbre fantastic on my mind and I’m going to reserve a seat there.

So that’s it. I reserve the seats or seating is live right now. Get in there do what I’m doing go to your interest list and I’m speaking this one. I don’t need to grab it. But the risk is 10 minutes before the beginning a recessionary forfeit your seat. The reason is that 10 minutes before and was not in the Reserve at which a reserved seat will be no seats will be freed up you will be allowed out of those will go to the walk up lines.

Okay. So as I’m doing this, I’m just making sure that I get in to each of these so there’s a few key ones because I don’t have enough time on my schedule. This one is in the Venetian at 12:15. So what is blocking me hear? I’m in the MGM for responsible disclosure that seat and book one in Adrian’s and will try to grab the other one there.

So this is a repeat session in action. There’s two for SEC 212. I had them both flagged as interested because this one conflicted with what I wanted to go see on Monday. So now I can go see it on Wednesday in the Mirage another key thing about these - r r e Pete Sessions the repeats are normally at different times in different building.

So if you’re just going to stick to one building don’t recommend it, but if you do then you’re going to be able to actually booked the multiple times writes you find which time is the most effective for your schedule and grab it. And I think that’s a fantastic thing that’s going on this year with with AWS notices in the re I think yes.

It is already booked. Add to wait-list we’re 2 minutes and it is already booked. Can I add myself to the waitlist? So I may be assigned to reserve see if one comes available somebody if somebody removes it for the schedule I’ll get in there but now I can cook on a section title and find any repeats.

There’s no repeats listed yet. There will be repeats or just not populating where to check that a second 13 are by the way books has its own theme which I thought was amazing. I really want to see this one. OK I have a conflict. So I definitely the moving event-driven I was he Tim’s talk over that I’ll catch that.

So here’s a great example of a conflict and I don’t want to move it in the one is not being repeated. So actually the both not being repeated. This is a great time to remind you all the stuff goes up on YouTube a week or two after me and Matt.

So being in the session you get the energy you get the chance to ask the speaker questions afterwards normally have more out into the speaker chat area. And you get to talk to attendees and that’s much like it’s a good experience right is why you’re going to reinvent but, wait a second pause.

So this is one of the challenges I find with the schedules that will not show you what conflicting so I’m trying to get in Becky session. I don’t have enough time will tell me what conflicting so I can fix it. And there is a way through calendar will do that second.

I need to get it on Midnight Madness. I need to get it on this time. So it’s really that energy has asked me. Hopefully you’re not paying attention right now. It sounds horrible for a stranger to say guy in while I’m talking to you. This is the fastest worked in years, which is amazing.

I’m Gladiator vs. Beef this up and come on movie night roll the dice movie night. Spinny Low T signs always not not super reassuring but I’m in for Midnight Madness. I think Midnight Madness caps are like 3,500 people so you should be able to get in this early. So I really am an introvert the fact that I’m doing streaming.

I thought movie night might be nice way to recharge with some folks and I love movies from the 80s because it was a crazy crazy time and it’s amazing that aside. I’m hoping these refresh and lock me in so they reserved me and they reserved me in I think I’ll be okay and I’m so if we go back to the event catalog You’ll see you got the ability to search through this stuff again, right? So if you want to take session level you can filter buy session level remember at the end of the session levels basically 200 really an intro, even though it’s listed in the intermediate is basically an introduction to the topic at hand.

I’m giving to 200 taxes here, right? So the 200 Top Gun security is very much like security works the overview of it in the cloud. And yes you if you saw me ranting on Twitter out with Eric last night, I never give Sylvie stuff so you can rest assured even though it’s a sponsored session.

It will be a purely educational. The other says session at 2:04 to customer storing and I make sure those aren’t able to either but you know, depending on if you like to hear case studies are not have a 200-level very intermediate are very introductory very much. Like hey, this is this is the ins-and-outs of whatever toppings that had 300 to sort of the grab-bag 300 you’re going to get is that they should deliver technical content.

You should be afraid of showing command. You should be showing architectural diagrams at things like that with real examples and but also with the overview as well. So you helped Bridge people into the topic for 400. These are the ones that I actually prefer if you sound horrible, I don’t like watching these in person because I really like watching them on YouTube and the reason being I consume an insane amount of the 400 levels at every year as they get pushed up on YouTube in the reason why I say I don’t like watching them in person is because he’s a really deep dive technical sessions.

Awesome. That’s great if it’s actually a talk and not a workshop and we’ll talk about that in a second. If it’s a talk the reason why I like watching a news cuz I can pause it and then start researching. So if somebody says Transit Gateway Works under the covers and I can dive into the Nitro Lair look at previous talks and really I end up writing a huge amount of notes on those talks and I find that just for me for workflow.

It’s nice when I’m I’m kind of sitting here and I can work through that the Whiteboard if you ever wondered what the shine Sing is in the background. It’s actually on the light. I have here shining off the big glass whiteboard. I have behind highly recommend getting a glass whiteboard.

They’ve dropped in price significantly since I bought that one even though that one is actually a dining room table from Ikea sadly, they don’t sell it anymore. Cuz that was the cheapest way, but about another one for the family office upstairs normal whiteboard. They were pretty inexpensive and fantastic glass whiteboards.

Definitely the way to go and side ramp the on this page right off of that. We have a couple different types of sessions. We’ve a builder session. We’ve a workshop. You also see Chuck talks and a couple other session types. So a builder session is normally just it’s it’s right.

It’s just a talk. I put a workshop should be two hours. So this works Ops 2 + 2 hours and 15 minutes with the workshops there. Literally you’re going to be doing some stuff right to a 400 level Workshop is awesome if your Skills are up to that level 400 level workshops are amazing.

If you can get in basically you bring a laptop you sit down and you do a deep. So, I’m right to a lot of great machine learning ones because we’re looking at the machine learning level, but if you did sec. I just got prompted by one of my apps that I just installed.

Hold onto seconds is handy little app. I’ve got that lets me mute specific why we’re actually able to do the Twitter thing and not hear the echo. So if we typed in for security at 400 level we should see a filter so, you know, it’s the catalog slowing down of it not by too much though.

It’s a won’t let me filter there. But what you can do is go on the side and filter based on security somewhere in the street. Not industry Mark. What are you doing? There we go topics. Security compliance and identity love how all of them in there. So here’s all the 400 levels and so GPS is generalized Global partner Summit.

You probably want to avoid those let your partner because they’re very specific to our partners. Like hey, this is our doing things here. But this is an amazing workshop and SDK for multi master key encryption. If you ever struggle trying to implement this design pattern with encryption. This is the best way to learn it.

Right cuz you’re literally going to sit down for 2 hours and 15 minutes with one of the senior Managers from cryptography won the senior engineer Summa cryptography team and they’re going to help you fix stuff. They’re going to help you work through Sample Challenge and say this is how you set up encryption.

I buy the SDK Jaso Workshop is 2 hours and 15 minutes. Then that sounds like a huge commitment. It’s a big time commitment. It is worth it 100% worth it. Now on my guide. I did not book and I know a lot of Heroes avoided recommending workshops not because we don’t support them.

We 100% support them because they have limited space. So we didn’t want to put the guys out that are trying to get to the broad audience of saying Hey try to get into this Workshop where they’re only allowing 50 people in or 75 people in it just wasn’t it wasn’t conducive to that.

But that’s why I wanted to bring up in the Stream, right? So building secure apis in the cloud is an amazing Workshop talks about the usage plans on Gateway x-ray visit amazing amazing session, right? If you’re interested in building secure apis, that’s the way to go and you can go across this for all of them other things.

We want to cover really quick as you guys are booking the stuff out. So, you know, what’s the session type activities are literally just like the Midnight Madness to talk of that kind of stuff. I am 20 minute presentations is a bunch of them this year, which is cool.

And there’s a bunch that you don’t have to actually lock into I’m so some of these are all a demo presento sponsors presentations. There’s a bunch of the developer Lounge as well that you do not need to book seats for will be covering the developer Lounge in another stream.

I’m a huge support of the developer Lounge. I spoke there and the summit summit series over the spring in the summer and the Builder sessions we talked about Chalk talks are smaller audience hour-long basically discussions, right? So it’s an expert or two. They’ll see the discussion and then we’ll just talk to you about whatever.

Very cool Deb chats we talked about those you don’t need to book a seat at can you book a seat now? You can’t even book a seat if you wanted to but like this one’s a great one. This is yet. I just want to make sure it’s not even listening through the speaker is I know who the speaker is and they are phenomenal.

It’s not been scheduled because you don’t need to lock it in yet. But when we get closer reinvent will cover those hackathons in jams. If you can get in go for it some of these were part of the Registration process eh eh to pay during registration to get a seat than the normal sessions.

Then Spotlight labs are literally Hands-On lab stuff to talk to gets its own category. For some reason. I don’t know why but if you like wings or cauliflower, that’s that’s the way to go and then the workshops it again. You can filter by industry the industry. I find somewhat useful but the problem with industry filtering is that there’s a ton of stuff that you can learn from other Industries that’s applicable to yours.

So if you’re looking for literally somebody laying out like I have problem XYZ and this is how I solve it filter by industry. Other than that, I think topics way better because topic is going to give you a much more accurate are not accurate, but it’s going to give you a better person the whole goal.

I find a reinvent is to learn from different perspectives is going to be an insane amount of people well over $50,000 coming to this thing. That’s a great opportunity to learn from people and maybe even You’re in advertising and marketing. Maybe somebody solved the problem you’re dealing with any educational Market new fuel filter by vertical like by industry.

You might not see it. Now. Being sad if you’re hunting for something at scale that you’re not sure about. This is a great way to filter. So one of the things that’s a really interesting ones. When you feel to break games and Tech you’re going to start to see some stuff at scale that you probably don’t have to deal with in your area.

Right? So the Rope hero ones, they’re always great but like this one caught my eye migrating live Pokemon database to Aurora postgres because there’s three hundred million players pushing on that D be and they migrated it. Why was life You may be in finance and dealing with the same kind of scale so you can find utility in those filters.

I’m so don’t be afraid of them, but they’re not necessarily the best way out to find you might be better off typing something like a product name into the search box and then you’ll see everything that’s mentioned that particular product in the title or in the abstract, but that’s it.

That’s how you know, it’s it’s pretty straightforward. I also love talks like this how Prime video process is 8% of all us internet traffic on AWS. Nanoscale most of us have to deal with very very cool. Also one of the reasons why Netflix has his entire category to itself.

That’s it did not see any issues. Nobody ping me on Twitter screaming that this did not work, which was great. The first this year takes your feedback extremely seriously, and I tell you that I was out to the point where they actually reach out to the heroes and said if you’re doing anything like this, let us know we have a support in place of things are going wrong that you can talk to people and get the answer in the accurate information out.

I love that. That’s that’s a fantastic way to engage the community great news didn’t need it. Cuz this work pretty much Flawless Lee little extra leg. But you know, if it goes from half a second to 1 second, no big deal. I got the sessions that I was able to get that I wanted to now you would have booked a lot more sessions that I did.

I’m giving a couple sessions that I’ve got a ton of commitment outside of attending talks. I’m so I only try to get into a few sessions and that’s you know, Interview this morning for a with a journalist talking about you know, what? What’s your people know about Reinventing? I’ll give you guys the same thing.

I told them was don’t try to do everything pick a couple sessions every day that are really interesting to you and attend them but then make sure to engage with people talk to people around you maybe take a certification exam go to some of the evening events take some opportunity to try what you’re learning.

I’m right life US Open that laptop and take advantage of the free tier and try to build something new. That’s always cool. Also remember new service launches are not in the catalog. They will get out of the catalog after the keynote. So we’re going to go through this again post keynote on either if they ain’t out something so there’s four possible slots for five possible slots with an L things.

They’ve done announcements previously at midnight madness it’s rare, but normally they launched one thing they do Monday Night Live will have some announcements Tuesday night is the global partner. Tuesday Mornings of global partner summer came out. They tend not to announce generally available stuff there they announce feature specifically for partners, but there’s a potential and then of course we’ve and he’s on on Wednesday and Vernors on Thursday to give me a 10 new stuff announce, which means we’ll get a lot of repeats Friday morning.

Friday morning is a great way to clean up a bunch of sessions that you missed her when able to get into or unable to get into earlier in the week. So don’t fly out Thursday night. I definitely check out the replay party Thursday night then Friday morning when you wake up and are recovered.

It’s a great opportunity to get in three or four more talks. Cuz a lot of people are or aren’t around anymore and those repeat are happening. So this is phase one. Is it just the opening? Hopefully you got the sessions you want and I very much hope you did.

I’m I hope this helped you out a little bit understanding what the process was with the different session types of War trailer made some mistakes here are there I’m glad that you guys stuck with me. Hopefully forgive me a little bit little crazy on the track again. You don’t take Christopher’s comment on LinkedIn very seriously.

Turn off radio s right away cuz there’s going to be some problems then inevitably you forget to configure things and you have to do it on the Fly while you know, a bunch of people watching life, but I appreciate your patience. I appreciate you sticking along. I appreciate you guys is an audience to the community.

If you want to hear different things on the stream, I would have you streaming to three times a week leading up to reinvent. I have one last thing. We’re 47 days out for me event, which means if you want to do the charity run on the Tuesday morning as friend a Nick from Australia remind me it’s cold.

I’d like it’s like five degrees is perfect. And he said that’s cold apparently for a lot of you. So 5 degrees Celsius is cold for I thought it was perfect. The charity is a 4K or an eighth. If you’ve never run before I will drop a great link to a Runner’s World article in and you can tell from me.

I am not a big Runner. I can’t even think of the world of the word the world the word so I’m dropping this right now in the LinkedIn doing the charity run. So here’s a couch to 5K 6 week beginner plan. It literally gets you off the couch and doing a 5k we’re running 4K at reinvent on the Tuesday morning.

It’s 45 days schedule. So day 47 right now get started get started now and you’ll be comfortably able to run that charity event. If you not going to run a charity event still think about donating directly because it’s a fantastic cause I believe is going to girls who code in the number of other Charities.

So I hope you guys are set up for fantastic day. I let me know what time you want to hear next and we’ll see you on the next dream. We are going to get going and just a second here but a minute and a half before we go live for reinvent open seating.

There we go. That’s how my day’s been going like always we had a Canadian Thanksgiving fantastic time just disconnected. But of course ridiculous of me, and that’s ridiculous me had the nerve to fire up Macos Catalina on my system. Guess what then go smoothly upgrade to Catalina. So I’m seeing some things that are challenging and all that kind of stuff.

But it seems like in fact for double streaming here. We are streaming to LinkedIn Periscope on Twitter. I have both open I think both are working at give me a second here to see if I can get this course. I can’t move Twitter. So I have both open. Both are working.

Give me a second. Sears at double-a, I don’t have that app installed either right now. Normally, I have a Sound Source installed and which would let me actually mute Twitter. Let me see if I can do that questions minutes before I live or reinvent. I miss is the the idea of being able to install your eyes are not installed at set up your Oh and there were still going so we had this ability to preset that we had the ability to preset.

Give me a second one more time here Twitter. There we go. Okay. Thank you for bearing with me so I can see the comments on Twitter comments in Periscope. I can see LinkedIn have if you have questions we go through this let me know Chris has the absolute 100% thing.

Correct? One year behind in Mac OS a because you’re still getting security updates the way to go as opposed to living on the Edge and Lita this time I waited for the ga this morning. So I’m seeing all this stuff going which is great. So if you have questions fire on periscope Twitter if I don’t get back to you right away ping me on one of those again and I will try to Indy degraded into the stream is that these new permissions are absolutely fantastic, but they’re also killing me every time you want to do something at ask for permissions now, I’m extremely granular.

Nice to know I was just telling me it won’t be able to do anything until I passed that off. So here we go. Can we get let me get back on track. I am sorry. I am discombobulated this re-emphasizes the smarter strategy of waiting and not upgrading your OS we have been doing these dreams pretty constantly over the last few weeks.

You can go to the pager drop the Lincoln Lincoln Channel ready to talk about what’s going on with the series 2 lamp 2 on Serverless to stuff like that right reserved seating used ability to book in two different sessions at reinvent. The majority of the sessions are handled by reserved seating, which means if you don’t have a lockdown seat, you’re going to be waiting in line.

I think it’s ten or fifteen percent of pretty sure it’s 10% of section space is reserved for walk-ups. The problem with that is that you’re in line to wait to get that walk up so I can be kind of challenging you really want to make sure you lock down a seat, which is why we’re on the stream live tonight number of things that were published on the 8th of you are going to see under the main menu here.

You will see the AWS gyro guys. This is a set of guides written by myself in a number of other Heroes 2 walkthrough sessions that we think are going to really be fantastic Community. He did this Advanced serverless guide. I love that Margaret did the introvert’s guide. It’s fantastic.

Put on so we click on Eric’s Advance Services guide you here a bit about Eric himself, essentially all you need to know he’s a butt you scroll down and you start to see what he’s recommending. Right? So he’s talking about your framing this pretty straightforward about he talked about early on in serverless and how its Advanced overtime and it’s and it’s it’s evolved and then he’s giving you these things like, okay.

Let’s check out the compute leadership session is fantastic sessions. But if you want an advanced education and serverless, these are the ones you really should line up with and if she’s got a great intro video that explains who she is her expertise experience, and then she goes down. So if you’re a newbie, here’s a great way to get started start with deep racer, but then how to be success successful become a machine-learning developer to help you guys make sense of the craziness.

That is the AWS reinvent session catalog. I need to do better at this but I’ll show you the video back when my tech actually worked as opposed to what’s happening today since last year’s was like here’s what you should do Monday Tuesday Wednesday. What I did this time was set up and said here’s what I want to do.

So if you want to hear is a bunch of topics, Embassy building blocks of a bunch of topics right and so on and so forth and I think that helps you understand the goals of security server Heroes broken their guy down in a different way, whatever makes the most sense for them in the way they see their space but these are fantastic ways to get a handle on what’s going on.

I’m just checking the background for different, Once again, hit me up on LinkedIn if you eat dinner Twitter Periscope, I if you have any comments as we’re going I think the LinkedIn stream is still going you never know with this stuff. It’s always dicey, but I am recording this behind the scenes at least.

I hope it looks like my LinkedIn is actually Frozen. We’ll see if it’s still going to double-check. Through this but with the gyro guys, we have this all set and that’s a recommendation but they took it a step further switched over to the 80s reinvent session catalog. You have to log into flag sessions are the book them.

Now. Unfortunately, it’s really hard to build a calendar out until 6 minutes from now when reserved seating opens up been recommending what you see me is sessions of Interest. So you have all the breakdown of the initial codes here. There are at least the prefix codes or a suffix codes as well Dash are as a repeated session.

I’m so that section is offered multiple times has a leadership sessions of a sort of the Seminole use the flag in the ground is where we are is where we’re going and then jackasses sponsored sections are sponsored by at 8 p.m. Partners. I’m actually giving to sponsored sessions on behalf of Trend Micro, but those are Dash ass and it’s also in description of the last Procession to make sure you want to go to that we can see we have some activities under the category.

I am not going to eat wings because that is not a good idea for me because I’ll get a little competitive and I’m really trying to watch my diet so I can get rid of the extra chicken arts and crafts. I totally want to do the movie night actually some flag of that.

Red ball dodgeball all this great stuff, right? So ideal you’ve gone through the catalog already in flag things that you’re interested in super cool heroes who did guides are filters. We’re filters in the catalog. So if I want to see what Eileen did I can just click on Eileen and it’s going to filter everything out for what Eileen did now I don’t think we’re guide is live right now, which is unfortunate.

But if we scroll down to me, I’m a filter and then you get all the sessions that I flag that I thought were cool. There’s two in here that I do not get in on time for the guy because they were added later in the day that I think it’s worth calling out in the three minutes before we So I got to clear my filter.

So that’s the one thing while you’re doing this to make sure you if you do a new sir. So I search for SEC 212 responsible disclosure with AWS security looks fantastic. The session on its own is great. The fact that Twitter is one of the speakers someone’s going to regret that decision.

It’s not going to be the audience. This is going to be an epic talk make sure to track that down. The best speakers on security is giving a toxic to 316 Bridget Johnson Senior manager do to be outside speaker access attribute-based access control is super amazing. Is it the Fantastic security topic I wanted to add this into the guy wasn’t able to push it in because of the deadlines cuz we’re trying to get this stuff up and running so we’ve got three 2 minutes and I’m hoping I’m going to keep reloading my LinkedIn stream in the background is LinkedIn doesn’t want to see if you need them.

So please hit me up on the comments for their let me see if that works. I did unpause God go through in the background. So yeah, if you were on LinkedIn give me the comments. If you’re here on Periscope hit me up in the comments. Are you just meet me at Mark and see a happy to answer anything as we go? We have two minutes basically before this loads up and we’re allowed to actually book sessions.

So there’s a first-come-first-serve basis. There’s a few things you need to be aware of that. I can cover actually already watch the how to reinvent episode on reserved seating and Jill did a great job of covering what the restrictions are and why they’re they are all cover them again in the last 2 minutes before this goes live that is too close to another session in another building travel time is locked into the calendar.

So no matter how fast you think you can get from a building has determined the minimum travel times and they’ve been forced them in the catalog is they don’t want you rushing around for your own sake for a bunch of these different sections. So you will not be able to come up with a warning and say hey you can’t make the conflict.

If you are if you have sent a another book seat or are on a waiting list for something in a conflicting time slot. You will not be able to do that book something for 9 a.m. On Monday and be on the waiting list for 9 a.m. Monday or onto waiting list at the same time.

You have one shit basically to put down in each of those time slots. So that’s really important to remember we got about 30 seconds here before this goes like all these sessions that you were interested in is because there’s this interests button or section on the side. This is going to allow you to book this easier.

So it looks like it’s live right now should already have a seat in this one. I am the speaker. I’m going to say I don’t need the book that I but this one I believe is yeah, this is Tim session Timbre fantastic on my mind and I’m going to reserve a seat there.

So that’s it. I reserve the seats or seating is live right now. Get in there do what I’m doing go to your interest list and I’m speaking this one. I don’t need to grab it. But the risk is 10 minutes before the beginning a recessionary forfeit your seat. The reason is that 10 minutes before and was not in the Reserve at which a reserved seat will be no seats will be freed up you will be allowed out of those will go to the walk up lines.

Okay. So as I’m doing this, I’m just making sure that I get in to each of these so there’s a few key ones because I don’t have enough time on my schedule. This one is in the Venetian at 12:15. So what is blocking me hear? I’m in the MGM for responsible disclosure that seat and book one in Adrian’s and will try to grab the other one there.

So this is a repeat session in action. There’s two for SEC 212. I had them both flagged as interested because this one conflicted with what I wanted to go see on Monday. So now I can go see it on Wednesday in the Mirage another key thing about these - r r e Pete Sessions the repeats are normally at different times in different building.

So if you’re just going to stick to one building don’t recommend it, but if you do then you’re going to be able to actually booked the multiple times writes you find which time is the most effective for your schedule and grab it. And I think that’s a fantastic thing that’s going on this year with with AWS notices in the re I think yes.

It is already booked. Add to wait-list we’re 2 minutes and it is already booked. Can I add myself to the waitlist? So I may be assigned to reserve see if one comes available somebody if somebody removes it for the schedule I’ll get in there but now I can cook on a section title and find any repeats.

There’s no repeats listed yet. There will be repeats or just not populating where to check that a second 13 are by the way books has its own theme which I thought was amazing. I really want to see this one. OK I have a conflict. So I definitely the moving event-driven I was he Tim’s talk over that I’ll catch that.

So here’s a great example of a conflict and I don’t want to move it in the one is not being repeated. So actually the both not being repeated. This is a great time to remind you all the stuff goes up on YouTube a week or two after me and Matt.

So being in the session you get the energy you get the chance to ask the speaker questions afterwards normally have more out into the speaker chat area. And you get to talk to attendees and that’s much like it’s a good experience right is why you’re going to reinvent but, wait a second pause.

So this is one of the challenges I find with the schedules that will not show you what conflicting so I’m trying to get in Becky session. I don’t have enough time will tell me what conflicting so I can fix it. And there is a way through calendar will do that second.

I need to get it on Midnight Madness. I need to get it on this time. So it’s really that energy has asked me. Hopefully you’re not paying attention right now. It sounds horrible for a stranger to say guy in while I’m talking to you. This is the fastest worked in years, which is amazing.

I’m Gladiator vs. Beef this up and come on movie night roll the dice movie night. Spinny Low T signs always not not super reassuring but I’m in for Midnight Madness. I think Midnight Madness caps are like 3,500 people so you should be able to get in this early. So I really am an introvert the fact that I’m doing streaming.

I thought movie night might be nice way to recharge with some folks and I love movies from the 80s because it was a crazy crazy time and it’s amazing that aside. I’m hoping these refresh and lock me in so they reserved me and they reserved me in I think I’ll be okay and I’m so if we go back to the event catalog You’ll see you got the ability to search through this stuff again, right? So if you want to take session level you can filter buy session level remember at the end of the session levels basically 200 really an intro, even though it’s listed in the intermediate is basically an introduction to the topic at hand.

I’m giving to 200 taxes here, right? So the 200 Top Gun security is very much like security works the overview of it in the cloud. And yes you if you saw me ranting on Twitter out with Eric last night, I never give Sylvie stuff so you can rest assured even though it’s a sponsored session.

It will be a purely educational. The other says session at 2:04 to customer storing and I make sure those aren’t able to either but you know, depending on if you like to hear case studies are not have a 200-level very intermediate are very introductory very much. Like hey, this is this is the ins-and-outs of whatever toppings that had 300 to sort of the grab-bag 300 you’re going to get is that they should deliver technical content.

You should be afraid of showing command. You should be showing architectural diagrams at things like that with real examples and but also with the overview as well. So you helped Bridge people into the topic for 400. These are the ones that I actually prefer if you sound horrible, I don’t like watching these in person because I really like watching them on YouTube and the reason being I consume an insane amount of the 400 levels at every year as they get pushed up on YouTube in the reason why I say I don’t like watching them in person is because he’s a really deep dive technical sessions.

Awesome. That’s great if it’s actually a talk and not a workshop and we’ll talk about that in a second. If it’s a talk the reason why I like watching a news cuz I can pause it and then start researching. So if somebody says Transit Gateway Works under the covers and I can dive into the Nitro Lair look at previous talks and really I end up writing a huge amount of notes on those talks and I find that just for me for workflow.

It’s nice when I’m I’m kind of sitting here and I can work through that the Whiteboard if you ever wondered what the shine Sing is in the background. It’s actually on the light. I have here shining off the big glass whiteboard. I have behind highly recommend getting a glass whiteboard.

They’ve dropped in price significantly since I bought that one even though that one is actually a dining room table from Ikea sadly, they don’t sell it anymore. Cuz that was the cheapest way, but about another one for the family office upstairs normal whiteboard. They were pretty inexpensive and fantastic glass whiteboards.

Definitely the way to go and side ramp the on this page right off of that. We have a couple different types of sessions. We’ve a builder session. We’ve a workshop. You also see Chuck talks and a couple other session types. So a builder session is normally just it’s it’s right.

It’s just a talk. I put a workshop should be two hours. So this works Ops 2 + 2 hours and 15 minutes with the workshops there. Literally you’re going to be doing some stuff right to a 400 level Workshop is awesome if your Skills are up to that level 400 level workshops are amazing.

If you can get in basically you bring a laptop you sit down and you do a deep. So, I’m right to a lot of great machine learning ones because we’re looking at the machine learning level, but if you did sec. I just got prompted by one of my apps that I just installed.

Hold onto seconds is handy little app. I’ve got that lets me mute specific why we’re actually able to do the Twitter thing and not hear the echo. So if we typed in for security at 400 level we should see a filter so, you know, it’s the catalog slowing down of it not by too much though.

It’s a won’t let me filter there. But what you can do is go on the side and filter based on security somewhere in the street. Not industry Mark. What are you doing? There we go topics. Security compliance and identity love how all of them in there. So here’s all the 400 levels and so GPS is generalized Global partner Summit.

You probably want to avoid those let your partner because they’re very specific to our partners. Like hey, this is our doing things here. But this is an amazing workshop and SDK for multi master key encryption. If you ever struggle trying to implement this design pattern with encryption. This is the best way to learn it.

Right cuz you’re literally going to sit down for 2 hours and 15 minutes with one of the senior Managers from cryptography won the senior engineer Summa cryptography team and they’re going to help you fix stuff. They’re going to help you work through Sample Challenge and say this is how you set up encryption.

I buy the SDK Jaso Workshop is 2 hours and 15 minutes. Then that sounds like a huge commitment. It’s a big time commitment. It is worth it 100% worth it. Now on my guide. I did not book and I know a lot of Heroes avoided recommending workshops not because we don’t support them.

We 100% support them because they have limited space. So we didn’t want to put the guys out that are trying to get to the broad audience of saying Hey try to get into this Workshop where they’re only allowing 50 people in or 75 people in it just wasn’t it wasn’t conducive to that.

But that’s why I wanted to bring up in the Stream, right? So building secure apis in the cloud is an amazing Workshop talks about the usage plans on Gateway x-ray visit amazing amazing session, right? If you’re interested in building secure apis, that’s the way to go and you can go across this for all of them other things.

We want to cover really quick as you guys are booking the stuff out. So, you know, what’s the session type activities are literally just like the Midnight Madness to talk of that kind of stuff. I am 20 minute presentations is a bunch of them this year, which is cool.

And there’s a bunch that you don’t have to actually lock into I’m so some of these are all a demo presento sponsors presentations. There’s a bunch of the developer Lounge as well that you do not need to book seats for will be covering the developer Lounge in another stream.

I’m a huge support of the developer Lounge. I spoke there and the summit summit series over the spring in the summer and the Builder sessions we talked about Chalk talks are smaller audience hour-long basically discussions, right? So it’s an expert or two. They’ll see the discussion and then we’ll just talk to you about whatever.

Very cool Deb chats we talked about those you don’t need to book a seat at can you book a seat now? You can’t even book a seat if you wanted to but like this one’s a great one. This is yet. I just want to make sure it’s not even listening through the speaker is I know who the speaker is and they are phenomenal.

It’s not been scheduled because you don’t need to lock it in yet. But when we get closer reinvent will cover those hackathons in jams. If you can get in go for it some of these were part of the Registration process eh eh to pay during registration to get a seat than the normal sessions.

Then Spotlight labs are literally Hands-On lab stuff to talk to gets its own category. For some reason. I don’t know why but if you like wings or cauliflower, that’s that’s the way to go and then the workshops it again. You can filter by industry the industry. I find somewhat useful but the problem with industry filtering is that there’s a ton of stuff that you can learn from other Industries that’s applicable to yours.

So if you’re looking for literally somebody laying out like I have problem XYZ and this is how I solve it filter by industry. Other than that, I think topics way better because topic is going to give you a much more accurate are not accurate, but it’s going to give you a better person the whole goal.

I find a reinvent is to learn from different perspectives is going to be an insane amount of people well over $50,000 coming to this thing. That’s a great opportunity to learn from people and maybe even You’re in advertising and marketing. Maybe somebody solved the problem you’re dealing with any educational Market new fuel filter by vertical like by industry.

You might not see it. Now. Being sad if you’re hunting for something at scale that you’re not sure about. This is a great way to filter. So one of the things that’s a really interesting ones. When you feel to break games and Tech you’re going to start to see some stuff at scale that you probably don’t have to deal with in your area.

Right? So the Rope hero ones, they’re always great but like this one caught my eye migrating live Pokemon database to Aurora postgres because there’s three hundred million players pushing on that D be and they migrated it. Why was life You may be in finance and dealing with the same kind of scale so you can find utility in those filters.

I’m so don’t be afraid of them, but they’re not necessarily the best way out to find you might be better off typing something like a product name into the search box and then you’ll see everything that’s mentioned that particular product in the title or in the abstract, but that’s it.

That’s how you know, it’s it’s pretty straightforward. I also love talks like this how Prime video process is 8% of all us internet traffic on AWS. Nanoscale most of us have to deal with very very cool. Also one of the reasons why Netflix has his entire category to itself.

That’s it did not see any issues. Nobody ping me on Twitter screaming that this did not work, which was great. The first this year takes your feedback extremely seriously, and I tell you that I was out to the point where they actually reach out to the heroes and said if you’re doing anything like this, let us know we have a support in place of things are going wrong that you can talk to people and get the answer in the accurate information out.

I love that. That’s that’s a fantastic way to engage the community great news didn’t need it. Cuz this work pretty much Flawless Lee little extra leg. But you know, if it goes from half a second to 1 second, no big deal. I got the sessions that I was able to get that I wanted to now you would have booked a lot more sessions that I did.

I’m giving a couple sessions that I’ve got a ton of commitment outside of attending talks. I’m so I only try to get into a few sessions and that’s you know, Interview this morning for a with a journalist talking about you know, what? What’s your people know about Reinventing? I’ll give you guys the same thing.

I told them was don’t try to do everything pick a couple sessions every day that are really interesting to you and attend them but then make sure to engage with people talk to people around you maybe take a certification exam go to some of the evening events take some opportunity to try what you’re learning.

I’m right life US Open that laptop and take advantage of the free tier and try to build something new. That’s always cool. Also remember new service launches are not in the catalog. They will get out of the catalog after the keynote. So we’re going to go through this again post keynote on either if they ain’t out something so there’s four possible slots for five possible slots with an L things.

They’ve done announcements previously at midnight madness it’s rare, but normally they launched one thing they do Monday Night Live will have some announcements Tuesday night is the global partner. Tuesday Mornings of global partner summer came out. They tend not to announce generally available stuff there they announce feature specifically for partners, but there’s a potential and then of course we’ve and he’s on on Wednesday and Vernors on Thursday to give me a 10 new stuff announce, which means we’ll get a lot of repeats Friday morning.

Friday morning is a great way to clean up a bunch of sessions that you missed her when able to get into or unable to get into earlier in the week. So don’t fly out Thursday night. I definitely check out the replay party Thursday night then Friday morning when you wake up and are recovered.

It’s a great opportunity to get in three or four more talks. Cuz a lot of people are or aren’t around anymore and those repeat are happening. So this is phase one. Is it just the opening? Hopefully you got the sessions you want and I very much hope you did.

I’m I hope this helped you out a little bit understanding what the process was with the different session types of War trailer made some mistakes here are there I’m glad that you guys stuck with me. Hopefully forgive me a little bit little crazy on the track again. You don’t take Christopher’s comment on LinkedIn very seriously.

Turn off radio s right away cuz there’s going to be some problems then inevitably you forget to configure things and you have to do it on the Fly while you know, a bunch of people watching life, but I appreciate your patience. I appreciate you sticking along. I appreciate you guys is an audience to the community.

If you want to hear different things on the stream, I would have you streaming to three times a week leading up to reinvent. I have one last thing. We’re 47 days out for me event, which means if you want to do the charity run on the Tuesday morning as friend a Nick from Australia remind me it’s cold.

I’d like it’s like five degrees is perfect. And he said that’s cold apparently for a lot of you. So 5 degrees Celsius is cold for I thought it was perfect. The charity is a 4K or an eighth. If you’ve never run before I will drop a great link to a Runner’s World article in and you can tell from me.

I am not a big Runner. I can’t even think of the world of the word the world the word so I’m dropping this right now in the LinkedIn doing the charity run. So here’s a couch to 5K 6 week beginner plan. It literally gets you off the couch and doing a 5k we’re running 4K at reinvent on the Tuesday morning.

It’s 45 days schedule. So day 47 right now get started get started now and you’ll be comfortably able to run that charity event. If you not going to run a charity event still think about donating directly because it’s a fantastic cause I believe is going to girls who code in the number of other Charities.

So I hope you guys are set up for fantastic day. I let me know what time you want to hear next and we’ll see you on the next dream.
