Ever wondered why the transition from on-prem network engineering to cloud networking is so challenging? Join us as we unravel this journey with our special guest, Dmitry Figol from AWS. With years of experience at Cisco, Dmitry offers a candid look at the slow adoption of network automation tools and the hurdles he faced while building cloud networking expertise. From the dual roles often required in network engineering and software development to his insights on content creation and conference speaking, Dmitry's reflections are both enlightening and actionable.

Our conversation also delves into the intricacies of migrating to AWS from on-premises data centers. Dmitry highlights key differences in networking constructs, the importance of choosing the right AWS region and availability zones, and the pitfalls of multi-region architectures. We explore the nuances of AWS load balancing, including the shift from VIP to DNS for resiliency, and share practical strategies for transitioning your existing skills to the cloud. Tune in for a comprehensive, engaging discussion filled with practical advice and real-world anecdotes from one of the industry's leading experts.
