AWS re:Invent 2019: The Future is in the Cloud

December started with a bang, culminating in the always exciting AWS re:Invent conference. Over 65,000 attendees made the trek to Las Vegas to get a grasp of the plethora of new updates at AWS and learn more about the different security vendors (including Perimeter 81) who were exhibiting at the conference. 

After the action-packed week that was AWS re:Invent, it’s time to reflect on the highlights and great conversations we had with customers, partners and thousands of potential clients that we met throughout the four-day conference.

Join us as we look back on last week’s event from start to finish, sharing our key learnings, conversations and booth activities.

AWS Doubling Down on Entire Cloud Migration

Every re:Invent, AWS announces different new features and services to their customers and this year they kept it simple with Andy Jassy’s keynote session. The clear message was organizations need to migrate everything to the cloud. Jassy’s and AWS vision is that by organization fully adopting AWS cloud services it will unlock additional IT spending.

The main point presented was that AWS has the most features and capabilities of any provider and that competitors aren’t getting any closer. So in short AWS wants to become the pillar of next-generation of businesses in the upcoming year. A migration should always be followed be the implementation of a complete AWS security solution

One of the Best Conference to meet Customers

While exhibiting at AWS re:Invent, we had endless opportunities to meet with our amazing clients. Even if it’s just a quick hello or a longer conversation, it’s great to have the face to face discussion with our customers.

While at the conference we had great conversations with different customers from different sectors and each conversation provided us with real-time customer insights into our solution.

Their personal insights and feedback will help our team to continue to build the best Network as a service solution in the market.
