Abstract

We’re witnessing an unprecedented growth in the amount of data collected and stored in the cloud. Generating insights from this data requires database and analytics services that scale and perform in ways not possible before. AWS offers a broad set of database and analytics services for processing, storing, managing, and analyzing all your data. In this session, we provide an overview of the database and analytics services at AWS, new services and features that we launched this year, how customers are using these services, and our vision for continued innovation in this space.

Speakers

  • Raju Gulabani
    • VP Databases, Analytics and ML, Amazon Web Services

In this session, Raju Gulabani gave a brief digest of AWS database services including the latest updates announced in re:Invent 2019. This session is really helpful if you need to see the big picture of AWS database services to build a new application or migrate an on-premises application to AWS.
