AWS Amazon Web Services

Expenditure: £130+

The limitation of existing client operating systems and software packages and the emergence of cloud and XaaS is very interesting and so I wanted to understand some of the major technologies and service providers that underpin so much of what we depend on every day. Apart from Azure and Google’s cloud platform there was of course AWS which offered a very hands-on experience based on a trial period.

Setup and ran waffle stand at school, a farm fare and a village Christmas celebration. I produced a business plan, development branding material and applied to secure funding from the Peter Jones's Enterprise. Although I didn’t win funding and little profit was made, the activity was still a worthy exercise.

Digital Conference

Bournemouth has been coined as ‘Silicon South’ because of its growing relevance in the digital world and the sheer number of digital agencies mainly specialising in design & marketing that have popped up in the past few years. While a lot of the speakers are founders of some of these companies, there are also a few who head the really big players as well as spokesman from conglomerates such as IBM and Microsoft. There are some great people there and the whole event has an enthusiastic and aspirations vibe. So far I have attended two of the Digital Wave conferences.
