A cool new open-source project coming out my team at AWS, https://t.co/XTIPumBUX5. It's a new Redis client that decouples the problem into a core high performance rust driver that connects to the servers that interacts with per-language (Python and Node today) client wrappers.

Amazon Q is here. If you’re building on AWS, our goal is to change how you build and interact with AWS. From helping you with getting information in the console to developing new features in the IDE to Java migrations, Q is here for you. https://t.co/0XhinAV0gd

No surprise, but once again #P99CONF from the #ScyllaDB crew is showing everyone how to do it: this is THE model for what a virtual conference should be! (Importantly: FREE!) Day 1 was terrific; looking forward to kicking off Day 2! https://t.co/PUAM7fkb2E

[Dor Laor @DorLaor]

In May 2021 we had a go/no-go deadline. We set a 10 approved speakers bar for the first P99 conference. That was exactly the number of registered speakers at the time.

The 3rd p99conf is about to begin with these talks and an audience of 16,000 developers

[P99CONF @P99CONF]

We're ready to kick off two half days of innovative sessions and debate with speakers from the world's most innovative enterprise companies. You can still join our free Oct. 18 & 19 #P99CONF event; save your seat now: https://t.co/ondzJOMhWK

I'm optimistic about the potential for AI assistants to help developers quickly ramp up and be productive in safer/stricter programming languages. I'm actually looking forward to learning Rust now :)

[Joe Magerramov @_joemag_]

I agree with Ben. Having been in this industry for a while, the speed at which engineers spit out code is rarely the bottleneck.

I’m much more excited about what AI can do to help improve quality and correctness of the code, as well as help explore new ideas and approaches.

[Marc Richards 🇯🇲 @TalawahTech]

This looks impressive. Well done @github 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I'm hiring for my first ever team. My first job description is for Cloud Performance and eBPF engineers! (many locations, I don't know why it defaults to saying Arizona): https://t.co/1sIwqlwTV4

[Jens Axboe @axboe]

Moving to io_uring for storage is usually pretty trivial, while idiomatic network conversions are harder with moving from a readiness to completion based model.

We'll soon have a doc detailing best practices for networking and io_uring, including all the recent kernel additions.

[AWS User Group Jamaica 🇯🇲 @AWSUserGroupJa]

Join us for our next meetup, this Sunday December 11, we will be discussing the latest and greatest announcements from re:Invent, and giving away free AWS credits!

Get out from the cold & warm up with faster startup times. 🥶☁️☀️

#AWS Lambda SnapStart for Java delivers up to 10x faster startup performance without the added spend—so you can speed up cold starts while saving time & money. Work smarter, not harder.

ENA Express is easily my favorite launch of this re:Invent, and we’ve been eagerly waiting having customers try it out. It is also worth a short thread. 1/

So I just wanna to say how excited I am that we got to do this cool project with @Giphy!
A studio in 🇯🇲, y'all 😅!
