First Stop, London
The AWS Summits bring together IT professionals for a day of innovation, learning sessions, and networking. With over 190 sessions and talk tracks at the London event, there was something for everyone, but AI and cloud migration were of course a key focus throughout.
Senior Channel Marketing Manager Yvonne McGarry said, “ According to AWS, one business every minute is adopting AI in the UK, but lots of customers are still managing on-prem environments and figuring out how to move their workloads to the cloud. It was fantastic to have the chance to present our latest innovations to longstanding customers and partners, as well as to new potential clients, demonstrating how we can enhance every aspect of their cloud journey while ensuring operational resilience and control."
Hej Stockholm!
While our team set up some fika for attendees, they also made time to discuss cloud migration and visit the Gen AI Hub.
AWS Vice President of Streaming and Messaging, Mindy Ferguson, explored how AWS provides the building blocks and tools to securely build anything imaginable. Mindy provided practical insights from customers who have accelerated migrations, optimized workloads, reduced costs, and cleared barriers on their journey from imagination to reality in improving their tech spaces.
We also heard about building cultures of experimentation and acceleration, how to build agentic systems, and how to enhance reliability in Gen AI projects.
G'Day, Sydney
Marketing Vice President James Kessinger travelled to Sydney, and had a fantastic time meeting with partners at the AWS Summit there.
“It started with some fantastic partner meetings earlier in the week, as well as a chance to sit down with our local sales, SE, partner, and marketing teams out here. The energy, excitement, and bullish outlook I felt from everyone has been amazing,” said James.
“I wrapped up the end of the week with two days at Amazon Web Services (AWS) Summit Sydney and had the chance to catch up with more partners, customers, some potential new customers, and new friends on the AWS team (thank you, Megan Howard, Felicia Gan!). We continue to expand our partnership with AWS, as we announced a couple of months ago with SolarWinds, we launched our new SaaS AWS instance in Australia. “
“The traffic to our booth during the summit was high and consistent over the two days,” added James. “My conversations and the interest I saw from people who stopped by were energizing. More folks wanted to hear about the SolarWinds platform story, and with that, our ITSM and Observability offerings working together as a solution.”
Given the interest in AI, customers and prospects were interested in learning about our full-stack, real-time visibility across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments, enhanced with AI-powered insights at all three events.All Roads Lead to AWS re:Invent
