New month, more connections on AWS Globe 🌍
I’ve prepared the October refresh with three Community Builder profiles, three Hero placements, and ten User Groups. Each addition has a NEW badge above its icon, making it easier to discover people and communities around the world.
Welcome to the Community Builders view
- BANTANTOULA — Côte d’Ivoire
- Pravin Mishra — Finland
- Tiago Xavier Matos — Brazil
It’s great to have your profiles on the globe and help more builders discover your work.
Celebrating the latest AWS Heroes
Congratulations to these three Heroes featured in AWS’s September announcement ! 🎉
- Avinash Shashikant Dalvi — Serverless Hero, Bengaluru
- Joanne Skiles — Serverless Hero, Orlando
- Xiaofei Li — Community Hero, Shanghai
All three already appeared on AWS Globe as Community Builders. This refresh adds them to the Heroes view too.
Ten User Groups joining the globe
A warm welcome to the organizers and members of these communities:
- 🇩🇪 AWS User Group Mannheim — Germany
- 🇪🇬 AWS Egypt Meetup — Egypt
- 🇲🇽 AWS User Group Edo. Méx. Cuautitlán Izcalli — Mexico
- 🇲🇽 AWS User Group Mariachi Builders — Mexico
- 🇩🇴 AWS User Group DO-Santo Domingo — Dominican Republic
- 🇳🇱 AWS Women Utrecht User Group — Netherlands
- 🇨🇦 AWS Mississauga User Group — Canada
- 🇭🇳 AWS User Group Honduras — Honduras
- 🇨🇴 AWS User Group Serverless Colombia — Colombia
- 🇲🇽 AWS User Group Cardenas — Mexico
Find your next community connection
The NEW badges highlight additions to a globe directory. They don’t necessarily mean someone has just joined an AWS program or that a group has just launched.
My aim with AWS Globe is to make these connections easier to find. Explore a profile, join a local meetup, or discover a community in another part of the world.
Thank you to everyone sharing knowledge, organizing events, and helping other builders. Welcome to your new spot on the globe!
