I love talking about: databases, noSQL, Marklogic, Search, GS Warriors and investing.

re:Invent session signup starts today, so here is a (very incomplete) list of recommendations from me.

I generally look for really good speakers in an area that's interesting to me. And a great speaker can make almost any area interesting.

My session is DAT410, where I'll be talking about advanced DynamoDB data modeling principles. Doing some new stuff showing where I see people get tripped up with DynamoDB.

Without further ado, here are the recommendations, broken into categories.

Community Track:

The Community track is so good this year -- lots of great AWS Heroes speaking. Here are some I'll go to (numerical order):

- COM301 with @sheenbrisals talking about advanced patterns w/ EventBridge
- COM302 -- no one better than @mattbonig to talk about advanced CDK usage
- COM304 -- @iAnuragKale talking about DDD + DynamoDB (DDD-DD??)
- COM305 -- The cold-start expert @astuyve teaching us everything he knows 💯
- COM306 -- More Lambda performance work as @TServerless talks about Rust + Lambda
- COM308 -- @anahit_fi on streaming with Kinesis + Lambda. Love me some streams!

DynamoDB track:

Really excited about the DynamoDB track this year -- more talks than usual, and some really interesting areas. Just talking about the breakouts below, but the Builder Sessions + Chalk Talks will be amazing too.

- DAT329 -- @gregkrumm & @akshatvig talking about core data modeling w/ DynamoDB
- DAT330 -- Awesome DynamoDB architecture talk from @amrithkumar going into some unexplored areas of DynamoDB
- DAT339 -- Excited for this one -- integrations from @hunterhacker & @_searchgeek showing some cool patterns with DynamoDB.

Don't forget two mentioned earlier -- my talk (DAT410) plus Anurag's COM304.

Dope speaker edition:

Lots of other interesting areas, but this last section is a grab bag of some of my favorite speakers. A few of them don't have sessions this year (@MarcJBrooker 😢 ) but this is a great group.

- SVS323 -- @edjgeek is top-notch, and this is a great one to see what APIGW can do. Also check out API302 + SVS316 from Eric.

- COP343 -- @dyanacek is probably my favorite reInvent speaker. Amazing drawings and super-dense talks with good, practical lessons.

- SVS308 -- @mavi888uy is always so good, and this one is on low-latency, event-driven apps.

- DAT207-S -- reInvent legend @houlihan_rick is back. Even though it's Mongo now, there's still so much good stuff here for NoSQL modeling!

- SVS401 -- @chrismunns + @julian_wood on advanced serverless. Nuff said.

- SEC336 -- @bjohnso5y talking about security + IAM is sooo helpful.

- ARC327 -- Three AWS veterans talking about resilience at scale. Hard to beat that. Added on recommendation from David Yanacek.

Sorry to all the great talks / speakers I missed -- there are so many! Feel free to respond / DM me with your talk so I can add to the thread.

@scottjohnson I miss that show. I wish there was more seasons.

It's official! Pipes for MarkLogic Data Hub arrived at https://t.co/DkvlRQ6cHQ But why do you want it? Because it provides visual programming integrated with the Data Hub through a UI driven no-code environment. Go get it now! @MarkLogic #DataHubFramework

@cme_610 I was thinking about those the other day. Hopefully I’ll be in the office next week.
