In the Clouds with AWS

AWS In The Clouds - We are back!

In probably the longest hiatus in podcast history, we are excited to revive an old podcast. In the 'AWS In The Clouds' podcast, Season Two Episode One (this is episode zero for those of you keeping track), we are going to look back at 2023, and just how far AWS has come.  We are also going to discuss Re:invent 2023, and of course, what start of the year podcast would it be, if we did not have a predictions episode.
