The company I work for,  Perion , chose Amazon Web Services as the main cloud provider for managing and operating our applications. These days I am learning how to manage databases and data related flows in the AWS cloud. Which is the reason I have attended the AWS summit in Tel Aviv today. Today’s AWS summit was the first from the series of AWS summits held in major cities around the world. There were ~ 5000 attendees today, 25 technical sessions and it was sponsored by 33 AWS partners. Most sessions which I have attended today had a lot of sponsor content mixed with technical not-too-deep dive into various AWS services.  Sessions were divided into 5 tracks, led by AWS Solution Architects and Sponsors representatives: Big data & Analytics sessions on data ingestion, data transformation and data analysis using AWS services AI and Deep Learning – sessions on AWS offerings for data enrichment and learning models Innovate – Rapid Application Development services Cloud oper
