Builders Sessions are 60-minute small groups sessions with up to five customers and one AWS expert, who is there to help, answer questions, and provide guidance. It’s just you, your laptop, and the AWS expert.
Each builders session begins with a short explanation or demonstration of what you are going to build. There will not be any formal presentation. Once the demonstration is complete, you will use your laptop to experiment and build with the AWS expert.
