AWS Community Day Jakarta — Call for Papers

We're opening the Call for Papers for AWS Community Day Jakarta, and we're looking for people who've actually built, broken, and fixed things on AWS to come share what they've learned.

This event is run entirely by volunteers from AWS User Group Jakarta. Last year's Community Day brought together 200+ attendees for a full day of sessions from 10+ speakers, and we're doing it again — which means we need speakers who bring real experience, not just slide decks.

You don't need to be AWS-certified or have years of stage time. If you've solved a hard problem, made an interesting architecture decision, or learned something the hard way, that's exactly the kind of talk our audience wants to hear. We've had case studies, deep-dives, and hands-on workshops from developers, architects, researchers, and career-switchers alike — what matters is that it's real.

We're looking for:

• Real-world case studies and lessons learned (including things that broke, and how you fixed them)
• Deep technical dives into AWS services
• Hands-on workshops
• Honest cloud journeys — from first deploy to production scale

We're not looking for:

• Marketing or sales pitches
• Vendor-sponsored product placements dressed up as talks
• Sessions primarily promoting your own product or service — if that's what you're looking to do, we'd love to have you as a sponsor instead. Check out jakarta.awscommunity.id/sponsor for sponsorship options.

Topics we'd love to see:

• Introduction to AWS Cloud Services
• Building Scalable Applications on AWS
• Enhancing Data Analytics with AWS
• Cloud Security Best Practices
• AI and Machine Learning Applications
• Serverless Architecture on AWS
• IoT Solutions using AWS
• Cost Optimization Strategies
• DevOps and CI/CD with AWS
• Case Studies and Industry Insights
• Something else entirely — surprise us!

Submit in Bahasa Indonesia, English, or both — whatever lets you explain your work best.

This is a free, community-run event — by the community, for the community.
