Infrastructure as Code, IaC, is vital to managing cloud environments, allowing developers to create the necessary infrastructure needed to run complex applications in the cloud. At this event we'll look at using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) to develop, deploy, and update all of this infrastructure. We'll look at hosting a static website using AWS S3 and Cloudfront, and how we can use CDK to expand our infrastructure to create an API for our website.
Key takeaways for this event will include:
- Introduce Infrastructure as Code (IaC) basics
- Discuss options to install the Cloud Development Kit
- Write CDK code for hosting a website
- Deploy IaC application/website
