Recently, we launched a new AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) L2 construct for Amazon CloudFront Origin Access Control (OAC). This construct simplifies the configuration and maintenance of securing Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) CloudFront origins with CDK. Launched in 2022, OAC is the recommended way to secure your CloudFront distributions due to additional security features compared […]

Any organization that manages software libraries and applications needs a standardized way to catalog, reference, import, fix bugs and update the versions of those libraries and applications. Semantic Versioning enables developers, testers, and project managers to have a more standardized process for committing code and managing different versions. It’s benefits also extend beyond development teams […]

For several years, AWS Solutions Constructs have helped thousands of AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) users accelerate their creation of well-architected workloads by providing small, composable patterns linking two or more AWS services, such as an Amazon S3 bucket triggering an AWS Lambda function. Over this time, customers with use cases that don’t match an […]

Did you know that Amazon Q Developer, a new type of Generative AI-powered (GenAI) assistant, can help developers and DevOps engineers accelerate Infrastructure as Code (IaC) development using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK)? IaC is a practice where infrastructure components such as servers, networks, and cloud resources are defined and managed using code. Instead […]

AWS Infrastructure as Code (IaC) enables customers to manage, model, and provision infrastructure at scale. You can declare your infrastructure as code in YAML or JSON by using AWS CloudFormation, in a general purpose programming language using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), or visually using Application Composer. IaC configurations can then be audited and […]

Today we’re excited to announce the general availability of CDK Migrate, a component of the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK). This feature enables users to migrate AWS CloudFormation templates, previously deployed CloudFormation stacks, or resources created outside of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) into a CDK application. This feature is being launched in tandem with the […]

Recently, we launched a new AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) construct for Amazon DynamoDB tables, known as TableV2. This construct provides a number of new features in addition to what the original construct offered, enabling CDK authors to create global tables, simplifying the configuration of global secondary indexes and auto scaling, as well as supporting […]

Enterprises are constantly seeking ways to accelerate their journey to the cloud. Infrastructure as code (IaC) is crucial for automating and managing cloud resources efficiently. The AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) lets you define your cloud infrastructure as code in your favorite programming language and deploy it using AWS CloudFormation. In this post, we […]
