AWS Amplify Admin UI

(Alex Intro)

Welcome back Purrfect Peeps!


Today we are going to talk with René Brandel about AWS Amplify Admin UI.

The Amplify Admin UI is a visual interface for frontend web and mobile developers to develop app backends and manage app content outside the AWS Management Console. Teams can use the Admin UI to create and manage enterprise-ready, scalable, and secure cloud backends for their apps.

Amplify and René

What got you started with Amplify?

  • Helping frontend developers

    • What would you recommend for a person to get started with Amplify?

    • If you're a frontend web or mobile developer on AWS, then Amplify is the best way to get started
    • Helps developers add cloud-based features to frontend apps

      What's the Amplify Admin UI? Is this something new?

      Do you need an AWS account to get started?

      What's so special about the new visual data modeler?

      GSI’s are always difficult, does this help? (In relation to the data modeler)

      What are some other major features you can have with the Admin UI? (we can talk about auth)

      Access outside the AWS Management Console

      This is amazing but could we talk a little bit about how it works? Is it running on Java somehow, like Firebase emulator?

      Non-technical users - how do they use it?

      How does this new Amplify Admin UI work with existing customers?

      • How do they turn it on?
      • CLI users
