AWS Resource Management with PowerShell and AWS Systems Manager
This session is a deep dive into managing AWS resources using the AWS PowerShell tools and AWS Systems Manager. We’ll begin with simple concepts and progress to cover techniques for controlling and managing fleets of EC2 images and instances, VPC networks and more. We’ll also cover other features of AWS Systems Manager, such as automated patch management and monitoring for both in-cloud and on-premises systems.
Extending Team Services to AWS – the Why, the What and the How
Using the AWS Tools for Visual Studio Team Services it’s a snap to extend your existing build and release pipelines in both VSTS and on-premise Team Foundation Server to work with a variety of AWS services. This session will begin with a short introduction to the tools, why you might want to use them and what they offer and then demonstrates the tools in action to dive progressively deeper into options for managing deployments to different AWS services such as Elastic Beanstalk, Lambda and CodeDeploy. The session will also cover tasks for working with secrets and options for building out infrastructure on demand as part of your build processes.
