Hello everyone, it is a pleasure to meet you all. Let me introduce myself.
My name is Maish Saidel-Keesing and I am a Senior Developer Advocate for the Amazon Elastic Container Service team at AWS. I have been tinkering with technology for a LONG time, I can still remember when my first computer was a ZX Spectrum, where I mostly played computer games as a kid that would load from a tape recorder. We have come a long way since then.
