Agenda entry: Quarterbacking the AWS Estate, Ian Meyers, AWS Solutions Architect. In this session we'll review real world ways to ensure your AWS estate is secure and that you can keep good controls over what happens, when, and how much it costs. Covered in this session will be Account Management best practices, how to enable and configure programmatic billing, as well as setup for cost allocation tagging and billing alerts. Ian will also give a quick update on new AWS Services of Data Pipeline, Redshift and new High Capacity instances.
Organiser's commentary: Delighted as always to welcome a speaker from AWS. This time we had Ian, AWS Solutions Architect, to talk on security, programmatic billing, and exciting new products such as Red Shift and OpsWorks. This session was a particular coup as we had a good Q&A on OpsWorks with Ian on the very same day it was put on general release.
