​Need to escape the madness on the strip at re:Invent? Join Duckbill, RedMonk, and Heavybit at Atomic Liquors in downtown Vegas. The best party at re:Invent, hands down.

​Your Hosts For the Evening

​Last Week in AWS / Duckbill

​You all know Corey Quinn, even if you'd rather you didn't.

​If you love him, come get that stupid/awesome selfie with him.

​If you hate him, come drink on his dime.

​Win/win.

​RedMonk

​Whether it’s crunching public adoption numbers to make a recommendation to product teams on new programming languages to support, helping marketing craft developer-friendly messaging or helping senior leadership understand emerging developer-led trends and their implications, RedMonk exists to help companies understand and work with developers.

​Heavybit

​Heavybit has been funding dev tool and infrastructure startups since 2013, back when "developer-first" was a weird idea. Their portfolio companies are the who's who of the products you know and love, such as PagerDuty, LaunchDarkly, Tailscale, Snyk, Netlify, and more.
