Some absolutely incredible news to end the workweek with! ๐Ÿคฉ
When itโ€™s time for the renewal, instead of going through a stressful, high-stakes exam day at a testing center, you can now maintain your active AWS certification for an additional year simply by completing curated training and hands-on labs directly on AWS Skill Builder. ๐Ÿš€

These labs are built and maintained by the exact same AWS experts who develop the services. It is such a beautiful way to keep your skills sharp and your credentials active through continuous learning!

From Viktor Vedmich, with Love ๐Ÿ’Œ


AWS is covering half your AI certification exam. Our team built this program for Central and Eastern Europe, so here's the deal.

We launched the AWS AI Get Certified Challenge for Central and Eastern Europe. Free. For developers who want an AWS AI cert without paying full price for prep and the exam.

What you get:
โœ… 3 months of AWS Skill Builder Team: 2,500+ courses, 150+ labs
โœ… 50% off your exam fee
โœ… Live sessions with AWS specialists
โœ… In-person study groups via local AWS User Groups

Pick one of three certs:
๐ŸŽฏ AI Practitioner, if AI is new to you
๐ŸŽฏ Machine Learning Engineer Associate, if you build and run ML
๐ŸŽฏ GenAI Developer Professional, if you work with Bedrock, RAG, and agents. Brand new.

The goal is big: 5,000 certified developers across 19 countries, with study groups running through 42 User Groups at the same time.

Registration is open until August 15. The program starts September 1.


You don't need to be an ML expert. If you write code and you're curious about AI, this is for you.

All details and registration: https://s12d.com/vbaau5g

What would you build if you had 61 hours and $200 in
AWS credits? ๐Ÿค”

AWS Builder Center is running a Weekend Challenge from July 10 to 13!

Your goal is to build a personal Al productivity tool, deploy it on at least one AWS service, and write up what you learned.

It doesn't need to be overly complex, you could build a bot that preps you for meetings based on your calendar, a task prioritizer that weighs urgency against impact or an email summarizer that pulls action items out of your inbox.

Use services like Bedrock, Lambda, DynamoDB, and Amplify, all available through Free Tier credits.

Also, the first 50 qualifying submissions earn an AWS Builder Jacket!๐Ÿงฅ

Exciting news! ๐Ÿš€
AWS just announced a brand new update: Kiro Crew

It introduces a team-based approach for AI agents within the Kiro ecosystem, allowing multiple specialized agents to coordinate and work together on tasks rather than operating as a single isolated assistant.

Hey people jan ๐Ÿค—
AWS just got a brand-new serverless compute primitive that is going to completely change how we build agentic and multi-tenant applications: AWS Lambda MicroVMs! ๐Ÿš€

Powered by Firecracker the exact same underlying virtualization technology that powers AWS Lambda โ€“ Lambda MicroVMs give you the best of all worlds:

โ€ข VM-Level Isolation: Every user or session gets its own strongly isolated environment.
โ€ข Near-Instant Startup: Snap-based boot times that resume in sub-seconds to single-digit seconds.
โ€ข Stateful Duration: Keep state (memory, disk, packages) alive for up to 8 hours per session, pausing to low idle costs when inactive.
โ€ข Full Developer Control: Package your custom environments easily from a Dockerfile and connect via dedicated HTTPS URLs supporting HTTP/2, gRPC, and WebSockets.

It is truly a game-changer.
๐Ÿ“– Read all the deep-dive details on the official AWS blog: https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/lambda-microvms/

What do you think of this release? How are you planning to use MicroVMs in your next project? Let's chat in the comments! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

Morning, people jan!
Something we've been quietly working on for months is finally here. ๐Ÿฅณ

When we launched our free AWS AI Practitioner Certification Prep course, the goal was simple: make world-class cloud learning accessible to our community for free.
And you showed up session after session, you learned, you asked and you pushed through six weeks of real work.

Today, we're beyond happy to share the next chapter:
our top-performing attendees are receiving a full, FREE AWS certification voucher.

Because finishing the course shouldn't be where the journey stops, passing the certification should.

๐Ÿ“ฉ If you're one of them, keep a close eye on your inbox (and your spam folder, just in case). Your voucher details are on the way.

๐ŸšฉAnd here's what we want you to really hear: showing up matters, and it gets noticed. AWS sees this community, sees who participates, who learns, who contributes and opportunities like this don't appear out of nowhere, they're the result of an active community and a lot of behind-the-scenes work to bring what you need to you. Sometimes it takes months, but it happens.

So come to the meetups, join the sessions, show up, again and again, because the more active and engaged this community is, the more we can open doors for every single one of you.

This is what we're building here, together. Now go pass that exam and share your journey with us. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
