AWS Service count by month using botocore. I walked the git commits and recorded the count of services at that time. Currently 138 services by this measure (cat botocore/data/endpoints.json | jq '.partitions[0].services|keys|length')
botocore's commit history goes back to 2012, but the directory structure changed at the start of 2016, which is why this only goes back that far right now.
Rough instructions on how to get this data: gist.github.com/0xdabbad00/f8c…
One interesting thing is the last big jump in services was not at reInvent, but in March 2018, when 11 new services were added. By year, the number of services added have been:
2018: 33
2017: 16
2016: 32

I just heard a company plans to do a thing I'd been asking for for a long time. Such a great way to end the week, and makes my persistence feel worthwhile. A mentor of mine once explained to me the importance of having a stump speech 1/4
This is just some key points you repeatedly state in every interaction with a group of people. In his case, it was every time he talked to execs at our company, he would mention these points. 2/4
Some of these were messaging so they knew our value, but some were asks, because you never knew who could fulfill it. As a young engineer, I felt every conversation I have should be new, and not repetitive, and that people would remember what I said and route requests I had. 3/4

I parsed the IAM condition keys and resource info out of the AWS and put it into json, along with code to do so. (this is the same info as iam.cloudonaut.io but json): gist.github.com/0xdabbad00/581…
Using this, I can now count that only 186 of 4641 (4%) AWS IAM privileges support tags. Not sure yet why this data has 4641 privileges and the policies.js method has 4925, but at least it's close.
This data comes from docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/Use…

AWS Config records 20% (67/334) of the resources that can be created by AWS CloudFormation.

Full list of AWS Config and CloudFormation resources and how to generate those lists at gist.github.com/0xdabbad00/2a9… and gist.github.com/0xdabbad00/b31…
The numbers are a little awkward to compare as 1) CloudFormation does not represent the total number of AWS resource type that exist, and 2) AWS Config sometimes supersets multiple CF resource types (ex. CF has SecurityGroup, SecurityGroupEgress, & SecurityGroupIngress)
But the important take-away is AWS Config does have anywhere near 100% coverage of all resources in an account. I don't know of any tool that does. CloudMapper's collect could be expanded to solve this problem if someone wanted.

We have begun collecting all human behaviour and putting the machine in between human beings and every transaction in life. In doing that, we are increasingly operating our society on a new basis.
The omnipresent smartphones and digital businesses around us have caused a permanent shift in our societies.
We are now operating with a new form of social science that we don't understand yet, but which we are already using in much the same way that physics was used to change European society in the 17th and 18th centuries.

[THREAD] what's the difference between all the #aws events like #reInvent and #AWSSummit etc? 🤷‍♀️

answering this one in super duper thread format down below 👇👇👇
so first off, there are a ton of #aws events happening all around the world, all the time. i definitely try to make it to a lot of them! i am rich in frequent flyer miles 🌎✈️

here's a rundown of a few of the different types:
🗣️ an #AWSSummit is a 1-2 day event w/ multiple tracks of breakouts, a keynote + often workshops/labs/partner talks. summits are generally pretty big, + there should be something for almost everyone, at various skill levels and jobs. global list here: aws.amazon.com/summits

When I tell people I am the founding PM on Lambda, the question I often get is how the idea for #AWS Lambda/#Serverless came about in the first place. The truth is, its way too hard to point to one person/event as the defining moment.
It took 100s of customer conversations notes from multiple AWS folks where they told us 1/all the things they wanted to minimize/ not do at all while building applications; 2/architectural patterns they were repeating and wanted a way to build into their development flow.
It took some serious leaps of faith and acceptance of risk from the people involved, and a constant iteration on what we wanted the final product to look like. This is where I first saw the AMZN "Working backwards" process in action and its brilliance in driving the right focus.

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:
