We are excited to announce the December meetup scheduled for Wednesday December 18th.

The 2 biggest technology events of the year (Kubecon and Re: Invent) have just concluded and Brent who attended both conferences will give us some big updates regarding Kubernetes, EKS, and Fargate.

Brent will take a look at some recent announcements from AWS...

From Kubecon, we will take a look at EKS managed nodes, and compare those to using your own instances.

From AWS Re: Invent we will take a look at AWS Fargate for EKS and see how that can be used to simplify your scaling and security footprint.

In a live demo, we will deploy sample workloads to each execution platform and discuss the differences.
