How we passed our AWS certifications and why you should too
My colleague Matt Jackson and I gave a talk on AWS certifications at the AWS UK User Group, an online event streamed live on Twitch. The slides are available here and a recording of the event is available on YouTube. It was a very slick and well organized event (kudos to the organizers!) and our presentation was preceded by an interesting panel discussion on re:Invent 2021 so check out the full stream on YouTube if you missed it.
Cloud Natives UK Meetup
I recently gave a lightning talk on assessing EKS security with kube-bench at Cloud Native UK, a joint virtual event being put together by the Cloud Native groups in Manchester, Wales, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, representing the cloud native communities from each of the countries in mainland UK. This was a shorter but updated version of the talk I gave at the end of last year at two AWS User Group meetups. The slides are available here and a recording of the event is available on YouTube (my presentation starts at 23:44). It was a very slick and well organized event (kudos to the organizers!) with very interesting presentations so check out the whole even on YouTube if you missed it.
AWS User Group Meetups
I recently gave a talk on assessing EKS security with kube-bench at two AWS User Group meetups, namely at AWS User Group Liverpool on 26th October 2020 and at Cambridge AWS User Group on 10th November 2020. These were two online events and the organisers and the audience were very friendly as you would expect from a good meetup! The slides are available here.

This weekend I am attending Markup UK at King’s College London , a 2 day conference on XML and other markup technologies.

Oxford Dictionaries API at Google Developer Group Meetup
This week together with my colleagues Phil and Amos I gave a presentation on the Oxford Dictionaries API at the Google Developer Group Reading & Thames Valley Meetup.
We were kindly hosted by Perusha and Ming from the local Google Developer Group Meetup and got lots of interesting questions from the audience. This also gave us few ideas on how to develop further the Oxford Dictionaries API and what developers may want to do with it in the fields of Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning.
XML Prague 2018
This week I am attending XML Prague at the University of Economics College campus in Prague, a conference on markup languages and data on the web. Together with other XSpec developers I am organising the XSpec Users Meetup. I’m also giving a lightning talk in the Schematron Users Meetup on how to test Schematron with XSpec.
Slides of the XSpec Users Meetup are available here whereas my lightning talk on testing Schematron with XSpec is available here.
