Aberdeen Python User Group 9 October 2024

"An Introduction to Cloud Computing with Python and Amazon Web Services (AWS)" - Harry Adam

In this session we’ll go through a brief introduction of cloud computing and Amazon Web Services (AWS). We’ll look at some examples of interacting with AWS with Python, some real-world applications and then go over some challenges and best practices.

Harry works as a software developer for a financial services company, helping people save their money. Although his day job is mainly Java development, he enjoys learning about other technologies, such as Python.

After the talk we will have one or more challenges for you to attempt - so bring your laptop! 

If you don’t already have Python set up, we can help you with that too. Coding in pairs or small groups (especially mixing beginner and more experiences coders) is strongly encouraged, though you can also code solo.

This event is orgnanised by a charity - Code The City. CTC suggests a small donation to help with charity admin costs, but if this is a barrier please just change the ticket price to what you can afford.

We're now back to running physical events backed up with an online option.

If you select a physical ticket and it happens that we can not meet physically you will have to attend the Zoom session. If you choose a physical ticket and it goes ahead you will have to comply with any conditions of attendance (eg masks or social distancing) that the venue operators demand at the time.

Those attending the physical space meetup should attend at 6pm for pizza and drinks. The coding session (for online attendees) will be from 6.30pm. Doors will be locked from 6.30pm.

**If tickets are sold out please do not attend as you will be refused entry without a ticket. **
