Let's kick off this new cloud podcast by talking about brand new features to the AWS platform:

- Target Scaling for Auto Scaling (we also talk about the same feature but for DynamoDB, which came out a few months ago), and how that simplifies dynamic scaling: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/latest/userguide/as-scaling-target-tracking.html

- CloudFormation StackSets and how they allow you to control stacks across multiple accounts or regions from a single location: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/what-is-cfnstacksets.html

- The ability to now create your own default VPC instead of having to contact AWS: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2017/07/create-a-new-default-vpc-using-aws-console-or-cli/

In the next episodes, we'll branch out into other cloud platforms, including the likes of Azure, OpenStack, and Google Cloud Platform, to keep you up-to-date with the latest developments while you're driving, mowing the lawn, or anything in between.
