Andrew May, Cloud Solutions Lead at Leading EDJE, will discuss his experience running docker based microservices in AWS. This will include an overview of the different options for orchestrating containers, how they integrate with other AWS services, and other services that integrate with ECS and EKS to provide load balancing and service discovery.
