Amazon S3 - Storage for the Internet with Alex Harford.

Alex Harford will share his real world experience with Amazon S3 services.

Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. It gives any developer access to the same highly scalable, reliable, fast, inexpensive data storage infrastructure that Amazon uses to run its own global network of web sites. The service aims to maximize benefits of scale and to pass those benefits on to developers.

Boris had some thoughts on how it could be used with Drupal: Scalable static file hosting and some thoughts on Amazon S3.

We'll also be discussing some related Drupal modules and have a Drupal Q & A, so bring your questions on anything related to Drupal!

Date: Thursday June 28th, 6:30pm
Location: Bryght Offices, 1 Alexander Street, Suite 400 in Gastown. [Map] (Details below).

For those who don't need to leave right away there's typically a more social discussion at a local pub afterwards.

Location Details

Bryght Offices

The Bryght Offices are located at 1 Alexander Street, Suite 400 in Gastown. [Map]
There's a security intercom at the door, so you'll need to buzz to get in.

Kid's Room

In recognition of people with families the Bryght conference room is available as a kids room. It is next to the presentation area and has glass walls so your kids will always be in sight. We can't provide child-minding or babysitting services - we just provide the room and leave it to you to entertain your kids. We suggest you bring appropriate toys/books/other entertainment.

Comments
