About us

Welcome to the official Meetup page for the Amazon Web Services User Group Kolkata! ☁️ Based in the City of Joy, we are a passionate, community-driven group of cloud enthusiasts, developers, solutions architects, and tech professionals dedicated to exploring everything AWS. 🌉 Whether you are spinning up your very first EC2 instance or you are a seasoned architect designing globally distributed serverless applications, you have a place here. 💻

Our mission is to foster a local community where members can learn, share knowledge, and grow together. 🤝 We believe in the power of peer-to-peer learning and building a strong network of tech talent in East India. 🚀 This group is perfect for developers looking to build scalable applications, IT professionals managing workloads in the cloud, startup founders exploring cost-effective solutions, and students eager to kickstart their cloud careers. 🎓 If you are curious about AI, serverless, DevOps, data analytics, or the broader AWS ecosystem, you belong here. 🧠

We host regular events throughout the year, completely free of charge. 🎟️ By joining our group, you will get access to monthly meetups featuring deep dives into specific AWS services, architectural best practices, and new feature announcements. 📅 We also host hands-on workshops where you can build real-world solutions, as well as sessions led by AWS Community Builders, AWS Heroes, and local industry leaders. 🛠️ Beyond learning, these events are a great place to network, find mentors, and discover career opportunities. 💼 We also organize annual flagship events like AWS Community Day and AWS re:Invent Recaps. 🎪

This is your community, and we are always looking for speakers, volunteers, and venues. 🎤 If you have a cool project you have built on AWS, a migration story, or a lesson learned from a cloud failure, we want to hear it. 💡 Reach out to the organizers to pitch a talk. 🗣️
