“Things that people said couldn’t be done, like bringing capital markets to the cloud – are getting done,” Selipsky notes.
But a huge number of start-ups are also choosing AWS.
Taking to the stage to the sounds of “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, Adam Selipsky is here!
“There’s no challenge too big that we can’t solve,” he notes, highlighting the good work done by customers such as BMW and Riot Games
And after a rousing rendition of “Don’t Stop Believing” to round us out, it’s time for the keynote!
Adam Selipsky up next…
Even for Vegas, this is loud….Mr Brightside anyone? Apparently it’s “the Vegas anthem”…
We’re 10 minutes out from the keynote!
Up this morning (when the rock finishes) is AWS CEO Adam Selipsky.
Selipsky took over the top job from Andy Jassey (now Amazon CEO) in 2021, having previously been CEO at Tableau Software
And we’re in! It’s a much smaller keynote hall than previous years, so the crowds are intense.
Speaking of intense, in typical US keynote session style, we’re being “treated” to some ear-splitting rock music at 8am…Linkin Park’s “Numb”, anyone?
Good morning and welcome to day 1 of AWS re:Invent 2022!
We’re up bright and early this morning (thanks jet lag) and full of excitement for Adam Selipsky’s keynote todya, where we’ll no doubt see and hear about all the company’s latest news and releases.
We’ve still got a few hours to go, so if you’re already excited, why not check out our live blog from last year’s event to get in the mood?
