Jul 2nd 2010 Welcome back

It’s been a while, but it’s time to breathe some life back into the UK’s Amazon Web Services community!

My name is Craig Box, and Ross has very kindly accepted my offer to share some of my thoughts on this site. In my role at the Symbian Foundation I’ve been building some services with AWS, and will shortly be writing some posts about the challenges my team and I have faced, and the efficiencies we have gained, moving from a “real server” infrastructure (albeit one on VMware) to the cloud, by way of EC2.

Until then, why not drop by our mailing list and introduce yourself?
