NOV. 30 – DEC. 18, 2020 - 3-week virtual free conference - Every news of the event at one place.


 
re:Invent the highlight for each AWS enthusiast. Due to Corona, AWS decided to do this event only online this year. But no worries, as the last two years ([2019](https://globaldatanet.com/blog/reinvent-2019) - [2018](https://globaldatanet.com/blog/reinvent-2018)), we help you to be as close as possible to the event. We will use this page to list every new service and every feature what AWS announced during the whole time.
