AWS re:Invent Day 1

Here we are at the Amazon annual re:Invent for another year of mind blowing technological advancement in cloud computing.  This is my fourth year attending and so far I can tell this is going to be filled with exciting technology, even more walking than 2015 (argh!) and even more standing patiently in line.

Over 30,000 people are registered so it's grown beyond the ability of the Venetian to hold the event.  This year there are events at the Mirage and the Wynne hotels in additon to the Venetian, making the logistics of schedule making a real challenge for both attendees and the conference coordinators.

Arrived on Sunday and picked up my SWAG...yet another hoody...and a surprise.  An Echo Dot sponsored by Capital One!

I'll be posting some notes about each day...
