CloudFormation Flashcards
What is the CloudFormation?
Is a service that helps you to model your application infrastructure. You create a template that describes all the AWS resources that you want and CloudFormation takes care of provisioning and configuring those resources for you
What are the benefits of CloudFormation?
You don’t need to individually create and configure AWS resources and figure out what’s depending on what. CloudFormation takes care of that for you
What are the costs of CloudFormation and Beanstalk?
They’re both FREE but not the resources it provision
What’s the difference between CloudFormation and Beanstalk?
Beanstalk is tightened to the stack you choose. CloudFormation is highly programmable working with every single AWS resource.
