This event has passed.

About the event

Running containers in the AWS Cloud allows you to build robust, scalable applications and services. Join us for a deep dive into how to build with containers using Kubernetes, Amazon Elastic Container Service, and AWS Fargate.

Throughout this day long workshop, our container experts will host live demonstrations and hands-on labs covering what you need to know to get started and build scalable architectures using containers in the cloud.

This event is free, but space is limited. Register now.

Who should attend

Developers, engineers, architects, and systems administrators who are interested in learning more about running containers on AWS.

Come prepared to build with a laptop and an AWS account. AWS credits will be provided for all hands-on labs.

Schedule

9:00AM – 9:30AM

Breakfast & Check In

Enjoy breakfast and a fresh cup of coffee.

9:30AM

Welcome

Introduction to the day.

9:35AM – 10:20AM

Building with Kubernetes on AWS

Learn how Amazon EKS makes deploying Kubernetes on AWS simple and scalable, including networking, security, monitoring, and logging.

10:20AM - 12:45PM

Amazon EKS Hands-On Lab

Go from 0 to fully deployed using Amazon EKS. You'll learn how to define and launch a Kubernetes control plane using Amazon EKS, including setting up kubectl, networking, and security access controls. Next, you'll see how to launch worker nodes using Amazon EC2 and check them into your EKS cluster. We'll finish up by running a sample application on our new, fully-managed Kubernetes cluster.

12:45PM - 1:45PM

Lunch

Lunch is provided for all attendees.

1:15PM - 1:45PM

Lunch and Learn: Introduction to Network Security for Amazon EKS

Tigera will provide an overview of the work they have been doing with AWS to enable network security within Amazon EKS, including support for Kubernetes Network Policy, and a demonstration of Tigera's support for continuous compliance of container deployments in enterprise environments.

1:45PM - 2:30PM

Building with Fargate and Amazon ECS

AWS Fargate lets you run containers on AWS without needing to provision or manage any servers. In this session, you'll get a technical foundation for using AWS Fargate with your existing containerized services. We will cover best practices for building images, configuring task definitions, task networking, secrets management, and monitoring.

2:30PM–4:30PM

Fargate Hands-On Lab

Deploy a containerized service using Fargate and Amazon ECS. Learn how to configure Amazon ECS, GitHub, CodePipeline, CodeBuild, VPC, ALB, ECS, Autoscaling, and log aggregation using a framework called Mu to launch microservices including a frontend and multiple backend services.

4:30PM

Closing Discussion

Recap of the day, expert Q&A, and next steps.
