Kateryna Khotkevych, Software Engineer at food delivery service Delivery Hero, talks to us about how data helps the delivery industry, how the company uses machine learning, and how AWS helps them grow their business. 

As hoteliers shift more and more toward becoming data scientists, the amount of data needed—and available—is growing at exponential rates. It’s critical that this data is stored somewhere easily accessible in real time for operators and technology systems, while at the same time kept safe and secure.

From PR to production, the Deliveroo Application Platform needs to get developers’ code into running containers as quickly and safely as possible. Check out the above talk from re:Invent 2018 to hear from Ben Cordero, Senior Software Engineer at Deliveroo, about his team’s process for safely shipping software with support for automatic rollbacks, service scaling and configuration management.

The hotel industry has existed since the beginning of the 19th century, and like many centuries-old industries, getting up to speed with modern tech can be challenging. That’s why companies like Revinate have sprung up to help hoteliers identify their best customers and transform guest data into revenue.

From Tuesday September 18 through Thursday, September 20, AWS experts and customers will host online talks dedicated to the retail and hospitality industry.

The hospitality industry was once a hotbed of innovation. Back in the 1960’s, for example, the Holiday Inn developed and launched the Holidex, a first-of-its-kind centralized reservation system. In a time before the internet, this piece of technology helped set the then 15-year old company apart. But times have changed, according to Patrick Bosworth, CEO and Co-Founder of Duetto.
