What the speakers said:
Nurbek Sadykov, AWS Community Leader, CEO of qCloudy:
“Cloud as a technology offers tremendous opportunities for realizing the most ambitious ideas. Many students who once joined us for internships through the user group are now working at our company. This shows that such events are not just one-off experiences, but powerful platforms for professional growth.”
Shakhnazar-Sultan Manbay, main organizer, IT Infrastructure Track Leader at SDU University:
“Cloud is the future. Companies are gradually shifting from on-premises to cloud infrastructure. With the growth of technologies like AI, the demand for computing resources will only increase, and the cloud provides unlimited capabilities to meet it. It is important for us that students gain industry-level knowledge and are prepared for successful careers. That is why we collaborate with companies and academies. AWS has been actively supporting us for the past three years. And this is just the beginning.”
AWS Student Day at SDU University was a strong example of how education, technology, and career opportunities can come together in a single space.
