The rush of pre releases is starting. So far it's a bit meh, with the exception of root-less member accounts, which is also a bit meh, but important.
I knew DNS HTTPS was support was coming, but they delivered the absolute minimum.
I'd really like firecracker support in bottlerocket. The amount of customers that run containers as root for <insert important sounding reason> is truly shocking. MicroVM support in EKS is long overdue.

Looks like I'll be posting my AWS 2024 content over on:

My shortest recommendations:

Lip balm. Seriously, pack extras.
Comfy shoes; there’s a lot of walking.
Dress in layers; there’s a huge day/night difference, but also indoors/outdoors.
Backpack beats shoulder bag.
Drink water.
Talk to people. The hallway track beats the keynote track.

Almost packed and ready for ! It's gonna be a fun week!

(this is how many updates it took me and Gavin to get to an hopefully good version of our session ARC207 - "The incident is over: Now what?")
