oh boy, this AWS Control Tower seems to lay out all fundamental cross account setup!
can be very useful
It has a dashboard!
Uses “blueprints” for the landing zones
wow
That does look cool
Now if this will integrate with Prometheus, that would be sweet
finally they did it to DynamoDB (was a pain to provision/plan capacity)
Only ever used for TF locking stuff but yeah, using another app to do some DynamoDB scaling based on usage was less than ideal
It’s not only that. The biggest issue was data skews. Hot primary keys. So you always ended up overprovisioning and overpaying
Except for some trivial use cases of cause

how’s the conference going this year from an attendee perspective?
last year it was impossible to attend any of the good talks
i went to one
I went to two talks in total during this reinvent + 0.5 where I was freezing, so I left earlier Even more people this year.
they had created a lot more sessions this time. did it appear to help?
Last year there were 14 repetitions of the one where they gave away deep lens. This year seems to be more talks, but less repetitions.
