re:Invent 2015 the vibe of the thing
I'm back at re:Invent 3 years after the inaugural conference and I'm keen to know what changed, not in the offering of the platform but more about what people are doing with it and what other technology trends there are concerning the cloud. As we turn up to the partner keynote (the day before the main conference starts,) the first thing that is apparent is the sheer scale of the event. Last time around the partner keynote was in a smallish room with a few hundred people. This year there are 6,000 partners in the room - as many people as attended the whole conference in 2012.
