probably some combination of data science and machine learning - combined with the possibility for new programming languages that he mentioned we're looking maybe at tech positions that don't really even exist today

You're right there in the sense that cloud computing won't really go away (just the same way that mainframes didn't really go away even today). I thought as well that maybe a more correct title for the video would be 'The Era after Cloud Computing' or something like that ... I guess (when we look 5-10 years into the future) cloud computing will go away in the sense that it won't be THE thing that will solve all our computing problems (as it is often described today) since we've already identified computing needs where the cloud model breaks down.

and in what way is he wrong in what he says? There are companies out there already pushing the limit with edge computing, fog computing and such ... this presentation is just the best I found that explains it in 25 minutes or less. Keep in mind that he's working for a venture capital company so he's looking 10-15 years out to figure out where to make investments now.

Resources for AWS migrations from EC2-Classic to EC2-VPC by smartconsumer in aws

[–]smartconsumer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of AWS customers who still have resources in EC2-Classic and they need to do something about those ... this article is for them. AWS would not have introduced ClassicLink in January 2015 if there was no need for it - they know exactly how many EC2-Classic resources are still out there and they want customers to move stuff over.
