Join us for AWS Content Delivery Network Edge Week!

About the Event

Your customers expect low-latency, highly-available connectivity to your web applications all over the world, while your organization demands security, performance, and support at a reasonable cost. AWS CDN Edge Week is an online event series designed to help you navigate these business needs when building solutions in the evolving CDN edge. Join sessions to get your questions answered by AWS experts, learn about the resources available to help you, and leave with actionable use cases that you can get started on right away.

Join us for AWS CDN Edge Week, where you will be provided deep dive sessions and demos to learn how to leverage the AWS global network backbone with 245+ CDN edge locations to accelerate content distribution, improve your security posture, and maintain availability. Sessions will focus on real-world CDN implementations presented by AWS product teams, solution architects, and customers. There will be live AWS representatives available to answer your questions anytime throughout the event, and we invite you to join any or all of the week’s sessions.

Day 1

2021 Updates to Content Delivery and Security

Getting the most out of Edge Computing - Best practices, use cases, and tradeoffs (Level 300)
Serverless edge computing has become an integral part of the application development process, and with that comes a whole new set of challenges around performance, scale and observability. In this session, we will cover use cases of when to use edge computing and some best practices to get the most out of edge computing. We also deep dive into the performance and scale trade-offs you can make when determining where to run your application’s compute.

Day 2

Improving Application Resiliency and Availability

Maintaining Availability with Global Services (Level 300)
Most AWS services are independently deployed to Regions and Availability Zones as a form of availability containment, providing you with a great foundation for building highly-available applications. Not all services though; Amazon Route 53, AWS Global Accelerator, and Amazon CloudFront are examples of inherently global services that do not lend themselves to zonal or regional partitioning. Instead, these global services require the usage of peculiar design patterns to ensure service availability while at the same time allowing you to seamlessly deploy configuration changes to hundreds of edge locations worldwide in a matter of a few minutes or less. Join us for a panel discussion with Principal Engineers from these services to understand how they think about availability in global services and how you can leverage the lessons AWS has learned operating them to build global, highly-available applications.

Building resilient web applications with Amazon CloudFront (Level 300)
Downtime is expensive, but for enterprises whose businesses are online, a service event brings business to a standstill. The average cost of downtime is $5,600 per minute, according to a 2014 study by Gartner. In this talk, we discuss how Amazon CloudFront delivers faster experiences while reducing the load on the origin and its ability to withstand the threats of malicious actors and natural disasters, thereby adding resiliency to your existing web application architecture.

Day 3

Enterprise Solutions to Large Scale CDN Workloads

API Performance at Scale with Amazon CloudFront (Level 300)
With over 245 Points of Presence globally, CloudFront delivers content for modern applications with the lowest possible latency. But what about APIs? Interactive experiences demand APIs with the lowest possible latency, and CloudFront is poised to deliver. Explore how CloudFront adapts as you scale up your API workloads.

Deploying your content delivery and perimeter protection with AWS Professional Services (Level 200)
AWS Professional Services (ProServe) offers expert support to accelerate the architecting and deployment of your CDN and web security solutions. Join this webinar to learn more about what capabilities and existing offers are available from the ProServe team. Afterwards, stay for a deep dive into a real-word example of ProServe working with a large deployment that leveraged content distribution, DDoS protection, and WAF.

Observability and Diagnostics with Amazon CloudFront (Level 300)
In this session, we will discuss the features and tools available for setting up monitoring, alarms, and notifications around operational performance for your Amazon CloudFront distribution. We will then walk you through setting up a dashboard using real-time logs to measure, log, and report on your traffic. Walk away from this session with the knowledge needed to investigate anomalies and respond to operational events quickly.

Day 4

Securing Your Internet-Facing Data and Applications

Accelerate DDoS protection with DDOS Fire Extinguisher (Level 300)
Learn how to apply AWS DDoS protection and best practices in minutes with DDoS Fire Extinguisher, a ready to go AWS CloudFormation template. DDoS events are best prevented by being prepared so the faster you can move, the sooner you can establish protection. In other situations, you need to quickly gather data and implement a mitigation without preparations. We dive into the role AWS Shield Advanced plays as well as how to use AWS WAF and rules you need to have in place and how configure those rules correctly. Learn how DDOS Fire Extinguisher automates AWS Shield Advanced, AWS WAF deployment, and automatically configures the tools you need to gather and parse logs to fine tune your WAF rules, all in under 20 minutes and without any coding experience.

Manage Bot Traffic to Your Web Applications (Level 300)
Bots are an Internet tool that allows your websites to show up in search results, and be shared on social media – but not all bots are good. Unwelcome bots can slow down your application, create needless operational burden, and increase operating costs. Join us and learn about the options available with AWS for controlling bots, protecting your application, and gaining visibility into who is accessing your website.

Protect your Network from DNS Exfiltration Attacks (Level 300)
DNS exfiltration attacks, such as DNS tunneling, allow for malicious actors to extract data through a DNS query to a domain they control. In this talk, we will provide you with updated guidance and best practices on how to control your outbound traffic and setup your network exit paths to effectively secure your data. We will also be discussing two new AWS Firewall services, when to use them, and how to set them up to secure egress traffic at scale.
