To surprisingly little alarm and few, if any, headlines, Amazon Web Services‘ has canceled its upcoming re:Inforce security conference in Houston, which was scheduled for just later this month. We’ve been closely monitoring the evolving situation with COVID-19 in the Houston area,” the company writes at the former landing page for the conference. Because of the elevated COVID-19 threat level in Houston, we have had to carefully reassess our plans for AWS re:Inforce 2021.

AWS re:Inforce certainly isn’t the only conference that has been canceled, though it is the largest.

Will we see a similar wave of conference cancellations as we wade into the coming colder months here in North America?
