I recently had the pleasure of speaking at Atlanta PHP and php[tek] 2017 where I presented a new talk, “Lassoing the Clouds: Best Practices on AWS.”
As you might be aware, the Amazon Web Services offering is massive. Between the details of running virtual private servers and AWS’s managed services, understanding the best practices when running a production workload can be difficult to grasp. This talk hopes to point out just a few of the key practices to ensure long-term maintainability and reliability of your infrastructure.
There are a handful of animations in the presentation itself, so I’m posting three versions of the slides below. Enjoy!
