NEW!! AWS / Research IT Office Hours

AWS now offers monthly office hours via Zoom for UCSD researchers. The sessions occur every second Tuesday from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM. During these sessions, an AWS Solutions Architect is available to answer any questions about AWS services, both technical and business-oriented. 

These are casual, drop-in sessions where researchers can freely join without prior reservation to get their questions answered.

During these sessions, you'll be able to:

  • Receive expert guidance on your current or planned AWS implementations
  • Get detailed clarification on AWS services, features, and best practices
  • Share any challenges you're experiencing and receive targeted recommendations

We look forward to connecting with you and to helping you with your AWS needs.
