AWS Cloud Path Week 8 - Completing AWS 101 Workshop with CDK

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. Missed the session? Catch up here:
