    Digitale Souveränität: Innovationsmotor für Deutschland?

    Dirk Gollnick, Senior Manager Sales, AWS | Mustafa Isik, Chief Technologist EMEA-Public Sector, AWS
    Im Oktober 2023 haben wir die European Sovereign Cloud mit der ersten Region in Deutschland angekündigt. In dieser Frühstücks-Session zeigen wir, wie der öffentliche Sektor und andere regulierte Industrien in Deutschland durch souveräne Cloud-Angebote Innovationen weiter vorantreiben können. Wir diskutieren, wie der strategische Einsatz von Cloud-Diensten die Komplexitäten in Organisationen verringert, Datenschutz gewährleistet, demografischen Trends entgegenwirkt und Innovationen vorantreibt. Der Fokus liegt auf der Kombination zwischen technologischem Fortschritt und der vollen Kontrolle über die eigenen Daten.

    Optimize your Java application for containers and serverless

    Sascha Möllering, Principal Specialist Solutions Architect for Containers, AWS | Dennis Kieselhorst, Principal Solutions Architect, AWS
    2020 marked the 25th anniversary of the Java programming language. One of the most widely used programming languages, Java is used as the server-side language for many back-end development projects. This session is intended for Java developers who like to optimize their applications for AWS Lambda and containers. We will discuss various tweaks and recommendations for each architecture to improve all phases of the development lifecycle – during build-, deploy-, and runtime. For this, we will revisit best practices from the past and look at new ones to reduce the cold start time, speed up execution, and improve monitoring. Before we finish the session, we will demonstrate how you can leverage GraalVM to optimize the application even further.

    Containers or Serverless Functions - When to choose what?

    Maximilian Schellhorn, Senior Solutions Architect, AWS | Emily Shea, WW Lead, Integration Services, AWS
    In the evolution of cloud computing, containers have become a pivotal technology. They provide a robust way for packaging, deploying and operating applications, with Kubernetes emerging as a leading orchestrator. On the other hand, Serverless functions provide a streamlined, event-driven model that abstracts infrastructure management entirely. In this session we'll explore the fundamental differences in architecture, scalability, and operational characteristics between these technologies. By investigating real-world scenarios we'll gain insights into choosing the right approach based on workload requirements, deployment scenarios, and operations. Lastly, we'll explore synergies between these technologies, demonstrating how they can be combined to leverage the strengths of both.
