What you'll learn
With the CDK, deploying AWS resources is easy… although sometimes, perhaps, too easy, resulting in sprawling infrastructure and a lack of modularity. In this course, Working with Large-Scale Environments with the AWS CDK, you’ll learn to architect your CDK projects with respect to modularity. First, you’ll explore the potential problems large-scale CDK projects can cause and how to resolve them through using multiple stacks instead of giant monoliths. Next, you’ll discover how to create dependencies between these stacks and reference stacks within other stacks. Finally, you’ll learn how to work across multiple regions and accounts when deploying your CDK projects. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of creating modular CDK projects needed to tackle larger-scale projects and sprawling infrastructure

With a background at a cloud hosting company, I started learning Linux and DevOps from the bottom up as a technical writer set out to document configuration management systems. Falling in love with Linux, DevOps and tech as a whole, I eventually took my ability to explain technical concepts to wide audiences to the training area, creating courses on Red Hat, SaltStack, HashiCorp, LXD, Docker, and more.
