Okay, this one is obvious I think. Andy is the CEO of Amazon and has a lot to tell in the cloud business. Andy maybe doesn't give you the day-to-day cloud deployment tips but you still find very useful information in his tweets! Even if you just see some notifications about re:Invent.

Werner Vogels

Eric is a Developer Advocate at AWS. His main areas are:

Danny is a really awesome person in the AWS space and one of the biggest AWS accounts on Twitter. He is really awesome in sharing all knowledge about cloud certifications and cloud development. He has some really cool guides on his blog about all cloud topics. Definitely check him out!
