This blog post shows you how to extend LZA with continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines that maintain your governance controls and accelerate workload deployments, offering rapid deployment of both Terraform and AWS CloudFormation across multiple accounts. You’ll build automated infrastructure deployment workflows that run in parallel with LZA’s baseline orchestration to help maintain your enterprise governance and compliance control requirements. You will implement built-in validation, security scanning, and cross-account deployment capabilities to help address Public Sector use cases that demand strict compliance and security requirements.
