DEV304: Building the Future of DevOps with Amazon Web Services

At Dynatrace, we challenged ourselves to build a virtual team member to help operations teams run large-scale cloud infrastructures. Think J.A.R.V.I.S. from Iron Man, but for operations. We built our cloud infrastructure on Amazon EC2, Elastic Load Balancing load balancers, and Auto Scaling groups for real-time scalability, Amazon Route 53 for instant customer access, Amazon Echo and Alexa for voice interaction, AWS Lambda for fast prototyping of the human-interaction layer, and Amazon DynamoDB for handling complex conversations. In this session, we will also discuss how we extend the service by using Amazon Machine Learning and AWS IoT to more naturally integrate our virtual assistant into the real world.
