DevOps & Infrastructure as Code

Defining your infrastructure as a version-controlled template instead of clicking through the Console — repeatable, reviewable, and rollback-able.

Defining infrastructure using a real programming language instead of YAML/JSON — CDK compiles down to CloudFormation, giving you loops, functions, and type checking for infrastructure.

Automating the path from a code commit to a running production deployment — build, test, and deploy without manual steps.

Rolling, blue/green, and canary deployments — how to actually ship a new version to production without downtime or unacceptable risk.

Two higher-level deployment abstractions that trade some CloudFormation/CDK flexibility for a much faster path to a running application — SAM for serverless, Beanstalk for traditional web apps.
