Architectural Patterns for Big Data on AWS

As organisations’ cloud environments continue to scale and grow, how do you ensure that access to resources are being managed securely? How do you scope permissions to achieve least-privilege access control across your AWS environment? This webinar answers these questions, delving into the AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) web service and looking at how it can help you securely control access to AWS resources.

Securing your workload in alignment with best practices is necessary to protect information, systems and assets while delivering business value through risk assessments and mitigation strategies. In this tech talk, we’ll walk you through how to secure your workload using AWS Identity & Access Management, AWS CloudTrail, Amazon GuardDuty and AWS Config services.

Learning objectives:

• Key security configurations for your workload
• Enabling AWS security services and how they fit together
• Architectural best practice guidance

Recently, the Government found that 72% of large companies and 49% of SMEs have experienced skills gaps when attempting to hire digital talent into their business. Do you fit into this category?
We’ve created AWS re:Start, a training and job placement programme, in an attempt to help close the digital skills gap. By training and placing groups that have been left behind in the digital revolution, we hope to help you from both a skills and CSR perspective. Join us for this webinar to find out all about the program and hear about how your company can get involved and start placing ex-military personnel with AWS skills.

Once you've migrated Production Microsoft workloads into AWS, what's next? This webinar will cover the benefits of cloud, automation & tooling in the management of persistent Microsoft workloads. We discuss and show AWS Systems Manager and how that can help with managing Microsoft workloads in AWS.

AWS and SAP are longtime partners, with thousands of enterprise customers running their SAP workloads on AWS. AWS had a substantial presence at this year's SAP SAPPHIRE NOW conference in Orlando (June 4-7), announcing a range of new features and releases; hosting seven theatre sessions; and holding 38 in-booth sessions with customers and partners. Join our webinar for a recap of AWS announcements from the show, and learn how AWS and SAP collaboration can benefit your business.

An increasing number of enterprise customers are moving their SAP landscapes -- including production environments -- to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to increase business agility and reduce costs. Enterprises that have made the transition include BP and Kellogg's. Learn more about the business benefits of moving mission critical SAP workloads to AWS, including: better performance, reduced TCO, improved agility and the ability to innovate at speed by leveraging AWS services within your SAP landscape.

In this webinar, we will show how you can migrate your Microsoft workloads into AWS and what strategies we’ve seen work best to get the fastest successful outcome. We will also cover Auditing, the 6 R’s methodology, tooling, pre-req’s for Microsoft workloads & migration techniques.

An effective business case can help you ease the adoption of cloud and migration to AWS. By examining your existing and upcoming application workloads, AWS help you develop a business case. In this session, we’ll guide you through the key steps to creating a compelling case that communicates the financial and economic benefits of cloud for your organisation.

In this webinar, we’ll look at why IT transformation projects seem so challenging and whether ignoring the probability of success and failure through TCO analysis can make tools dangerous when poorly applied. We’ll also look at the cost of cloud, and whether it’s really lower than buying and running IT on premise; and examine the TCO of cloud adoption.

Training your engineers and developers can speed the pace of cloud adoption, migration, and the delivery of business benefits. In this webinar, we’ll discuss 12 steps you can take to reskill your technical teams so that you can use AWS Cloud securely, efficiently, and effectively. We’ll also review structural mechanisms to help scale your organization’s capacity to operate a cloud-based IT environment.

If you could solve real-world problems with IoT data, what would you tackle first?

To answer this question, we'll show you how to use AWS IoT Analytics to analyse massive volumes of IoT data without having to worry about the cost and complexity of building your own IoT analytics platform. The solution makes it easy to run analytics and derive insights from IoT data that will help you make better, more accurate decisions on IoT applications and machine learning use cases, for example, predictive maintenance.

Who Should Attend: Developers, Coders, Engineers, System Administrators, IT Managers, Solutions Architects and Product Heads.

Level: Intermediate

In this session, you'll learn how to connect microcontroller-based embedded devices and extend AWS to your more powerful, IoT edge devices. We'll also show you how how to apply cloud programming to your devices to create powerful, end to end solutions. This session will cover the use of Amazon FreeRTOS, AWS Greengrass, AWS IoT Device Management, AWS IoT Analytics and Amazon Sagemaker.

Who Should Attend: Developers, Coders, Engineers, System Administrators, IT Managers, Solutions Architects and Product Heads.

Security by design examines a wide range of issues, such as: control responsibilities; the automation of security baselines; the configuration of security; and the auditing of controls for AWS customer infrastructure, operating systems, services and applications. This standardized, automated, prescriptive and repeatable design can be deployed for common use cases, security standards and audit requirements across multiple industries and workloads.

This webinar will examine concepts for managing sensitive data in AWS. For example, using tools to encrypt client access with AWS Certificate Manager; secret management with AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store and its integration with deployment pipelines; and how to encrypt data at rest to ensure privacy.
