event date

location

Orlando, Florida, United States


Want to share something you’ve built, learned, broken, or optimized in AWS?


This is your chance.


Our Lightning Talks are short, focused presentations designed to give more members of the community a chance to speak. All experience levels are welcome. Whether this is your first time presenting or your fiftieth.


🕒 Talk Format

  • Maximum 10 minutes speaking time
  • 2–3 minutes for Q&A
  • Practical, story-driven, demo-friendly, or lessons learned
  • Keep it tight. Keep it real. Leave people with something actionable.


🎤 What Can You Present?

Anything AWS-related, including:

  • Architecture patterns
  • Serverless projects
  • AI/ML with Bedrock
  • DevOps wins (or failures)
  • Cost optimization lessons
  • CDK / Terraform builds
  • Production war stories
  • Community or career insights in cloud


If you’ve shipped it, tested it, learned from it, or debugged it at 2 am — it qualifies.


💡 Why Lightning Talks?

  • Low pressure
  • High energy
  • Great way to build speaking experience
  • Safe space to practice before larger conferences


You do not need to be an “expert.” You just need to be willing to share.


Submit your idea and let’s build the Orlando AWS community together.
