It's AWS re:Invent day/week. I've never been, but I get the impression that it's like Apple's keynote, or Google I/O, in which big product announcements are made. On those days, you'll see multiple submissions about the respective conferences too.
- cheeze 8y agoThis is exactly what re:Invent is. Most teams dream of launching a new AWS product at re:Invent (and not missing their date and launching at a later time)
- danso 8y agoIt'd be an interesting blog post topic to look at how AWS:Invent (or I/O, or F8, etc) product threads on HN compare to actual product impact. I remember Rekognition getting decent discussion 2 years ago [0], but not along the angles or magnitude of how Rekognition is usually discussed in recent months. OTOH, other things I've been interested in as a data geek, I've barely heard of since reading about them on HN -- e.g. Athena [1] [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13072956 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13072956 [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13072245 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13072245
