AWS CDK revolutionized the way we create resources in the cloud. It enables developers to write infrastructure as code and feel at home.
However, AWS CDK is such a flexible and powerful tool that it's easy to make mistakes. And some errors can be very costly.
I'll cover topics such as:
1. Recommended project Structure and stack guidelines
2. Constructs guidelines - how to model constructs. I believe in domain-driven constructs.
3. CI/CD guidelines - handling configuration per environment and secrets in CDK.
4. Resiliency & security guidelines
5. General development tips - tags, working with CFN resources, and more.
I also provide a working CDK template open-source project that implements these practices. It's called the AWS Lambda handler cookbook: https://github.com/ran-isenberg/aws-l...
And it also has a cookiecutter variation: https://github.com/ran-isenberg/cooki...
As a side note, I talked about CDK at the CDK Day 2020 ( • AWS CDK Day 2020 - Our Saas Journey W... ) from a CDK newbie perspective. Now, three years later, writing serverless application with CDK to production at CyberArk, an enterprise company, I'd like to share insights and best practices we have gathered.
