Building a scalable ticketing platform

Room: Zaal 14 | Time: 13:00 | Duration: 60

Learn how we created a serverless, fault-tolerant, event-driven ticketing platform on AWS. We will cover the reasons behind the decision of building this platform from scratch ourselves, the architecture of the different components, the concepts of event logging and how we deal with security & privacy. The platform launched halfway 2024 and has already been battle tested by selling tickets for the biggest festival of The Netherlands, Zwarte Cross.

Serverless applications with Aurora DSQL as a database of choice

Room: Zaal 11 | Time: 13:00 | Duration: 60

Amazon Aurora DSQL is a serverless distributed SQL database with virtually unlimited scale, highest availability, and zero infrastructure management. In this talk we’ll use a sample serverless application that uses Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda and Aurora DSQL to explore the architecture and features of this database. We’ll explore the scaling behaviour of DSQL, measure performance including cold starts, deep dive into its pricing and current limitations. We’ll also use Strands Agent with Amazon Aurora DSQL to talk to our application using natural language.

The human side of coding

Room: Zaal 10 | Time: 13:00 | Duration: 60

Our tech stacks are exploding in complexity, even with AWS doing a great job at giving us building blocks at higher levels of abstraction. How do we tackle that complexity? Do we take the usual route and solve it by adding more tech or AI? Or is there another route? Yes there is! Even in the 80’s, people realized that the theory of a system can’t be transferred through code and documentation alone.
