Presentation: AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK)

The AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) allows you to describe your application’s infrastructure using a general-purpose programming language, such as TypeScript, JavaScript or Python. This opens up familiar avenues for working with your infrastructure, such as using your favorite IDE, getting the benefit of autocomplete, creating abstractions in a familiar way, distributing them using your ecosystem’s standard package manager, and of course: writing tests for your infrastructure like you would write tests for your application.

In this session, we’ll look at how users can create infrastructure with CDK and some best practices for creating reusable components.
