Disclaimer: I’m not a REGEX expert :smile: Lately, I was working for one of my customers on a custom configuration of AWS Config recorder.

The trade-off of this method is that if a new AWS Config resource type came out, it won’t be recorded until you manually select it in your AWS Config recorder setting....

TL;DR: I search “@awscloud” in their Twitter Bio and add their profiles to a public Twitter list. One opportunity to get fresh news from AWS ecosystem is to follow relevant current or former Amazon (Web Services) employees called Amazonians on Twitter, but it could be difficult to stalk their profiles across the myriad of user-profiles talking about #AWS subjects… Lately, I was working on a quick python Proof of Concept (another excuse to ramp-up my python 🐍 skills) to query Twitter API to found profiles with a specific twitter description/bio, and I questioned myself if I could use this to find more and more AWS employees :roll_eyes:...
