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.

I recently gave a lightning talk on assessing EKS security with kube-bench at Cloud Natives 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. 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.

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.

Oxford Dictionaries API at Google Developer Group Meetup

Tue, 20 Mar 2018 00:00:00 +0000

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.

Today I’m presenting at DevOps Oxford Meetup at the Oxford Centre for Innovation in my ‘home town’ Oxford. This is a short version of the talk Continuous Integration with Jenkins, Docker and Compose I gave at DockerCon Europe 2015 but with a few updates. The slides of the talk are here and the sample code is on GitHub.
