JAWS-UG

JAWS-UG (AWS User Group – Japan) is a community for people who use Amazon Web Services cloud computing. It brings AWS users together to learn, share knowledge, and connect through events and local study groups. The organization provides information about upcoming events and archives of past event websites, helping members find learning opportunities and revisit community activities. Its event calendar includes scheduled gatherings such as JAWS FESTA 2026.

JAWS-UG supports participation with guidance on how to join, including rules and etiquette for attendees. Members can explore study groups and connect through the JAWS-UG Slack team. The community also offers information for those interested in organizing activities: visitors can learn about local branches, how to start a new branch or become a representative, how to take part in branch operations, and how to speak at events. The website also covers the group’s history, recognizes past AWS Samurai, and lists sponsors. These resources help AWS practitioners in Japan engage in peer learning, community events, and organizational activities.
