AWS BugBust: The World's First Bug Busting Challenge for Developers
Get started today with AWS BugBust: https://amzn.to/3zNne2G . AWS BugBust is the world’s first global challenge for developers to eliminate software bugs, improve application reliability, and save money for their organizations in a fun and engaging format. AWS BugBust is powered by Amazon CodeGuru Reviewer and Amazon CodeGuru Profiler - developer tools that use machine learning to identify an application’s most expensive lines of code and provide intelligent recommendations to improve code quality by identifying critical security, availability, and performance issues. With just a few clicks, Java and Python developers from around the world can join the challenge by creating an AWS BugBust event for their organization in the AWS console, and compete for prizes by claiming and busting bugs in their applications. The more bugs developers fix, the higher they climb the AWS BugBust leaderboard to receive achievement badges, exclusive prizes, and a chance to attend AWS re:Invent 2021 in Las Vegas.

1.643 -> (bright techno music)
23.07 -> - Hi, I'm Werner Vogels, Chief
Technology Officer of Amazon.
26.86 -> Today, I'm excited to talk to you
29.21 -> about a very cool new launch at AWS.
32.87 -> When I first started working
with distributed systems,
35.89 -> the tools we had as developers were crude
40.33 -> compared to the modern tools of today.
42.77 -> But as frameworks have made certain
45.138 -> aspects of development easier,
47.08 -> and computer code has gone on to have
49.93 -> an impact on almost every industry.
52.84 -> One thing hasn't changed, software bugs.
57.36 -> Bugs are just inevitable,
when you're writing code.
60.72 -> We've all seen how the cloud
62.81 -> has turbocharged the
speed at which developers
65.83 -> are able to build and deploy new features.
68.51 -> Today, the volume of code to inspect
71.26 -> has increased from
thousands of lines of code
75.02 -> to literally millions of lines.
77.71 -> A lot of effort is spent in
finding and eliminating bugs
82.55 -> in this large code base.
84.56 -> It often takes an event,
such as a bug bash,
87.91 -> to set aside time and focus on
addressing these code issues
92.66 -> that build up over time.
94.23 -> Sure, fixing bugs is critical.
97.62 -> But being a developer is about creating,
100.77 -> it's about innovating,
and it's about building.
103.91 -> That's why today I'm happy to announce
107.509 -> AWS BugBust.
109.323 -> The world's largest bug bashing challenge.
111.71 -> It is dedicated to improving code quality
114.82 -> using the power of machine learning
117.16 -> with a mission to bust 1
million bugs worldwide,
122.12 -> all while helping AWS
customers decrease costs.
125.95 -> Available in the AWS Console,
128.42 -> organizations can run their own,
130.26 -> private, virtual bug bashing events,
132.67 -> securely capturing how many bugs are fixed
136.1 -> and how much money is saved over time.
139.01 -> In just a few clicks, DevOps leaders
141.44 -> can quickly set up a bug busting event,
144.11 -> scan their code using Amazon
CodeGuru and start competing.
148.52 -> Once a BugBust event is set up,
150.73 -> a dashboard will show
your team's available bugs
153.83 -> so they can start busting
to score points and win.
158.82 -> Once a BugBust event is complete,
160.9 -> developers can add their points
to the global leaderboard,
164.24 -> where they will compete with developers
166.04 -> from around the world
167.05 -> to become the ultimate AWS BugBuster.
170.74 -> The more events you run,
the more points, rewards,
173.81 -> and prizes developers
will win for busting bugs.
177.9 -> The top 10 BugBusters on the leaderboard
180.66 -> will win a trip to AWS re:Invent,
182.95 -> where they will be celebrated
for their achievements
185.6 -> and take part in the
first live AWS BugBust.
190.29 -> BugBust changes the game, quite literally,
193.4 -> all while helping companies save money
196.12 -> by making their code more efficient.
198.05 -> I'm excited to see how technologies,
200.42 -> like Automated Reasoning
and Machine Learning,
203.45 -> are helping developers to be even better
206.747 -> by powering tools like Amazon CodeGuru.
210.537 -> AWS BugBust will help
customers revolutionize
213.95 -> one of the most tedious
steps in code development,
216.74 -> and best of all, have fun doing it!
220.115 -> Now, go out,
223.115 -> go bust some bugs,
225.606 -> and go build!
227.924 -> (music crescendos)
