Where London’s AWS community comes to learn, share & connect

The AWS User Group UK is the largest dedicated AWS community in Europe, with over 10,100 members. We run two groups, the original AWS UG UK, covering all AWS topics, and a recently launched subgroup that focuses on AI in Practice.

Our Community Values

Great communities don’t happen by accident – they’re built on shared expectations. Our values make AWS User Group UK welcoming, useful, and safe for everyone. They set the tone for how we learn, share, and connect, so new members know what to expect and regulars know how to help. When we follow them, we create the kind of space where ideas travel faster than egos and everyone leaves smarter than they arrived

Everyone’s Welcome

All backgrounds, roles, and skill levels are welcome here.

Curiosity over Certainty

Ask any question without embarrassment. There is never just one solution.

Share and Collaborate

Bring your knowledge, questions, and pains. Swap ideas openly, and meet people who’ll open new doors.

Friendly & Respectful

Be kind, introduce others, and assume good intent. Be welcoming – no closed circles.

Listen, Help, Celebrate

Listen generously, offer help freely, and applaud each other’s progress.

Empathy First

Seek to understand before you respond. Step into their shoes and offer support that fits their level and reality.

Code of Conduct

Our Community Groups

We currently run two AWS communities: the AWS UG UK, which focuses on all AWS topics, and our recently launched AWS AI in Practice group, which focuses on AI on AWS. We run in-person events in London from 6pm to 9pm. You can check out our upcoming schedule here. If you are looking for AWS UGs outside of London, you can find them here.

Who should join

Developers, DevOps/SRE, data/ML engineers, architects, founders, tech leaders – anyone building on AWS or curious to start.

What to expect

  • 2 sessions (20–30 mins) + Q&A.
  • Talks/walk-throughs/demos/lightning talks.
  • Plenty of time to connect with your peers over nibbles and drinks.
  • NO marketing or sales presentations.

AWS UG UK

Join us for exciting talks, demos, and friendly networking. Whether you’re hands-on with services every day, shaping cloud strategy, or just starting your AWS journey. We focus on the following :

  • Business Cases: How specific business problems were solved using AWS.
  • AWS Product Domain: Overviews and deep dives into specific domains (e.g. SaaS, Security, Identity & Compliance, Costs, Serverless) with best practices and future trends.
  • Architecture/Design: the bigger picture – with best practices, pain points, war stories, and key risks.

AWS AI In Practice

Our new community shares real-world lessons and practical patterns for shipping AI faster, smarter, and more securely on AWS. We focus on the following:

  • Impacting with AI: Case studies showing how others are solving tough problems or improving customer experiences.
  • Building with AI: How engineers integrate AI into daily delivery workflows, from smart tooling and automation to intelligent pipelines.
  • Delivering AI: Deep dives into implementation using AWS services, tools, and best practices, with code, tools, and architectures you can take back to your team.
