Look inside
With AWS CloudFormation, you create scripts and templates that automate most aspects of deploying and managing cloud infrastructure. The result: Fast, standardized deployments and less time spent on tedious manual tasks. AWS CloudFormation in Action gives you a complete introduction to CloudFormation, taking you hands-on with increasingly complex projects that scale almost infinitely. You’ll learn to define and deploy high availability, multi-region, and database-driven websites using CloudFormation—all from the AWS console, command line or via API. Whether you’re overseeing thousands of servers or a handful of deployments, automating with CloudFormation will increase your productivity, lower your risk of human error, and allow your developers to benefit from DevOps best practices.
about the technology
CloudFormation is the native Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) solution for AWS, simplifying resource management on Amazon Web Services. With CloudFormation you can track, control, replicate, and roll back infrastructure as quickly as copying a template. Thanks to CloudFormation, AWS engineers can easily utilize IaC DevOps methodologies and best practices for better quality, reliability and faster turnaround when fixing inevitable problems.about the book
AWS CloudFormation in Action teaches you an automated alternative to manually deploying AWS resources. This step-by-step guide to CloudFormation resource management guides you through a seriesof real-world projects, starting with the infrastructure code templates that form the core of CloudFormation. You’ll work your way through deploying a simple website, adding features like networking, auto-scaling and load balancing, and then scale up your site to manage a global footprint with AWS’s redundancy and geographic diversity features. You’ll learn to use CloudFormation in concert with orchestration or configuration management tools like Chef, AWS OpsWorks, and AWS Systems Manager, along with how to implement continuous delivery pipelines with AWS tools, GitHub, and Jenkins. Thanks to these efficient and time saving DevOps techniques, you’ll soon be spending less time on managing deployment and more time on feature development.what's inside
