I want to introduce the AWS Cloud Infrastructure Day to provide a comprehensive showcase of latest innovations in AWS cloud infrastructure. This event will highlight cutting-edge advances across compute, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML), storage solutions, networking capabilities, serverless, and accelerated technologies, and global infrastructure.

Join us for AWS Cloud Infrastructure Day, a free-to-attend one-day virtual event on May 22, 2025, starting at 11:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM EDT). We will stream the event simultaneously across multiple platforms, including LinkedIn Live, Twitter, YouTube, and Twitch.

Here are some of the highlights you can expect from this event:

Willem Visser, VP of EC2 Technology will open with the introduction of the AWS journey since 2006, when Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) was launched with the goal of customer-obsessed innovation. He will speak about the progress made over nearly two decades in cloud infrastructure to support both startups and enterprise workloads based on scale, capacity, and flexibility.

You can learn how AWS developed beyond computing instances to create a complete cloud infrastructure, including the parallel evolution of services like storage and networking capabilities.

Todd Kennedy, Principal Engineer, GoDaddy, will share GoDaddy’s Graviton adoption journey and the benefits it reaped from Graviton. Todd will walk through an example to demonstrate moving Rust workloads to Graviton. Learn how GoDaddy achieved 40 percent compute cost savings and over 20 percent performance gains.

This event covers a variety of topics related to AWS Cloud infrastructure. Here are interesting topics that caught my interest:

• Generative AI at the edge – You can learn how to select, fine-tune, and deploy small language models (SLMs) for on-premises and edge use cases due to data residency requirements using AWS hybrid and edge services.
• Serverless for agentic AI auditability – You can learn how AWS Step Functions and AWS Lambda transform opaque agentic AI system operations into transparent, auditable workflows.
• Accelerated computing – You can get a close look at AWS innovation across silicon, server, and data centers and learn how customers are using AI chips. Learn how you can get started and reduce your generative AI costs.
• Networking capability – You can learn how AWS infrastructure—from physical fiber to software-defined networking—enables unparalleled performance and reliability at global scale. The session covers modern application networking patterns while emphasizing secure connectivity solutions for hybrid environments.

This event is perfect for technical decision-makers and developers and offers deep technical insights and hands-on demonstrations of the latest AWS Cloud infrastructure solutions.
