Welcome back, cloud builders! In Week 8, we tried our hands at the AWS 101 Workshop by implementing everything we previously deployed manually—this time using AWS CDK. This was a huge milestone in our journey toward Infrastructure as Code (IaC). Let’s dive into the recap.

Week 8 Highlights

This week, we transitioned from a simple AWS Lambda Function to fully automating our infrastructure using AWS CDK. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Deploy the AWS 101 Workshop with CDK:
We successfully deployed the same infrastructure covered in previous weeks but using AWS CDK instead of manual setup.

2. Created and Configured Our CDK Project:

  • Set up networking (VPC, subnets, security groups)
  • Deploy EC2 instances
  • Implement storage solution (S3)
  • Set up load balancing

3. Next Steps:

  • Configure IAM roles and permissions
  • Set up auto-scaling

4. Explored the AWS Console to Inspect Deployed Resources:

  • Validated the deployed infrastructure.
  • Checked CloudFormation stacks and stack events.
