AWS Community Day NL 2025 – Design high-performance APIs on AWS: strategies and best practices

What a ride! 🚀

The day before AWS Community Day NL 2025, my flight was cancelled. For a moment, I thought I’d miss it entirely. Luckily, a last-minute ticket saved the day, and I’m glad it did.

Because where else do you get to present in a 𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗮, with your slides projected on the 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 you’ve ever spoken in front of? 🎬

My session on “𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩-𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘈𝘗𝘐𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘈𝘞𝘚: 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴” had a lot of people, and the feedback and conversations afterwards were really great. 🥳

What I enjoyed most, though, was seeing so many 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 after a year since I left the Netherlands. That made the day extra special. 🇳🇱

Big shoutout to Martijn van Dongen and the rest of the organizers for hosting such a high-quality event in such a unique venue.

Community at its best. 🎉
