Market leaders are defined by their innovation, agility, and data-driven decision-making. They do this with the right tools to unlock business value. In this exclusive webinar we show how Coder and Amazon Q Developer free developers from tedious tasks so they can focus on analysis and innovation.

Our November webinar combines the Coder cloud development platform with Amazon Q Developer, a generative AI assistant. Tim Quinlan, Senior Technical Marketing Manager at Coder, and Rymesha Fason, Technology Consultant at Amazon Web Services, demo real-world examples that free developers from tedious tasks so they can focus on analysis and innovation.

What you’ll learn in this webinar

Coder is a cloud-native platform for managing and monitoring cloud development environments (CDE) securely, consistently, and efficiently. We have loads of experience helping enterprise organizations improve developer experience and getting development cloud spend under control, with impressive results:

• A platform engineering team defines a template once, then each developer creates their own development environment at the literal click of a button.
• Technical onboarding drops from weeks to days or even hours.
• Developers are no longer limited by the capacity of their workstation or their geographic location, but they still get a consistent, flexible, responsive developer experience.

Amazon Q Developer is based on Amazon Q, a powerful generative AI chatbot that can be securely tuned to your business. Amazon Q Developer is specialized to assist developers at every stage of the software development lifecycle (SDLC):

• Planning: Research over 200 AWS services to explore new capabilities and get recommendations based on your project’s requirements and constraints.
• Creating: Use chat in your IDE to generate code and understand your code base.
• Testing and securing: Generate unit tests, scan for vulnerabilities, and generate remediations.
• Operating: Diagnose and troubleshoot errors, analyze network and VPC connectivity, analyze AWS resource usage and billing.
• Maintain and modernize: Migrate legacy and deprecated code to newer language and library versions.

Coder and Amazon Q Developer are a natural fit. They are strongly aligned on effectively applying cloud technologies to boost developer productivity and development flexibility.

Is this webinar for you?

This webinar is for you if you want your developers to spend more time on improving code instead of setting up development environments and wading through big codebases.

• Coder provides a consolidated platform for managing development environments in the cloud. Define a template once, let developers create consistent workspaces as needed.
• Amazon Q Developer lets developers make faster, smarter decisions when coding, testing, and maintaining software.
