A Cloud Guru Serverless Workshops
We’re traveling around the world in 2017 to deliver on-site masterclass serverless workshops directly to your team
A Cloud Guru is extremely passionate about exploring new and emerging cloud technologies — especially serverless architecture. We love to develop solutions with serverless, we love to learn what others are doing with serverless, and we love to connect with the serverless community at the hottest conference in the cloud.
Basically … we ❤ serverless.
To help spread the love of serverless, we’ll be hitting the road throughout 2017 to bring our hands-on masterclass serverless workshops directly to your teams. The immersive and innovative full-day workshops are taught by gurus who eat, breathe, and sleep serverless technology every day.
Workshop #1: Build a Serverless Video Sharing Website
Learn how to build your very own video sharing website, like YouTube, using serverless technologies. During the workshop you will build an entire end to end system (along with an HTML5 website) that’s powered by AWS Lambda and API Gateway, S3, Elastic Transcoder, Firebase, Auth0 and much more.
As you are guided through the workshops you will also learn about useful patterns and architectures such as “compute as backend” and “compute as glue”. This workshop is suitable for beginners and experts alike (and if you are an expert we’ll be sure to challenge you just a little bit more).
Workshop #2: Build a Chatbot with Lambda & Serverless Framework
Everybody likes chat bots so why not build your very own!? In this workshop you will design and a build a serverless chatbot using AWS Lambda and the Serverless Framework.
You’ll get to integrate your bot with Slack and learn a bunch of cool serverless tips and tricks. At the end we might even add a few more AWS services to make your bot super intelligent. Step-by-step guidance and example code will be provided throughout the workshop so it is suitable for beginners and experts.
Workshop #3: Event Driven Security in AWS with Lambda
Serverless security might be one of the hottest topics of 2017. Public cloud and serverless architectures throw up challenges to traditional security approaches.
Spend a full day exploring the many ways that serverless components can enhance AWS cloud security for both serverless and ‘traditional’ cloud workloads. This workshop bridges ‘traditional’ and serverless cloud on AWS, and is a must for anyone targeting secure production systems with Amazon’s technologies.
Workshop #4: Introduction to Alexa Development
This workshop is designed for absolute beginners both to Alexa and to developing in NodeJS. You do not need to have any programming experience, nor any echo development experience. In this workshop we will build a total of 5 skills and we will teach you how to customize each skill. We will also teach you how to make interactive stories using Alexa and how to submit your skill to the Alexa store.

The next ServerlessConf is in Austin on April 26–28, with top industry speakers and sponsors. On the first day of the conference, we are offering these full day masterclass workshops. It’s a great excuse to hangout with us in Austin and “test drive” the workshops for your organization!
