re:Invent 25 for Wireless Nerds: Free Burgers, Faster Satellites, And Wi‑Fi That Actually Works
Description
Special edition! Cloud meets real‑world scale on the Las Vegas strip as we line up two big stories: Amazon Leo’s leap to gigabit‑class LEO connectivity and a live eero deployment inside the largest Five Guys in the franchise. We set the scene for reInvent, map out the sessions worth your time, and explain how these pieces fit into a resilient, transport‑agnostic network strategy you can actually deploy.
First, we break down why Amazon Leo’s enterprise preview matters for architects who live with last‑mile pain. With a new ultra antenna and speeds up to 1 Gbps down and 400 Mbps up, Leo changes the playbook for remote and distributed sites. We point you to session ARC320 with Leo principal solutions architect Nick Matthews for a deep dive on designing resilient global networks using LEO as a first‑class path, and we unpack how this affects SD‑WAN policies, latency budgets, and multi‑path failover.
Then we head to the Venetian and the Five Guys takeover, where eero powers every transaction, kiosk, and dashboard across more than 10,000 square feet. This live, high‑density environment doubles as a working lab: we’ll show a custom mini rack, demonstrate eero’s API integrations, and walk through how AWS Site‑to‑Site VPN with eero streamlines secure connectivity for remote sites and distributed workforces. Think ship‑and‑plug activation, policy‑driven control, and cloud‑level observability scaled across many locations without hand‑holding.
If you care about making networks simpler, faster, and more resilient—from rural branches to pop‑ups to busy QSRs—this is your field guide. Join us in Las Vegas, grab lunch during the Wednesday demo window, and see how LEO backhaul and eero at the edge turn the cloud into a practical, everyday platform. Subscribe, share with a teammate who owns branch networking, and leave a review to tell us what you want to see tested next.
