Textbook in PDF format
Looking to accelerate development and build cloud native applications with AWS Cloud Development Kit? Through hands-on projects, you'll learn the basics of AWS CDK, the tool of choice for many of the world's largest technology companies.
Informed by real case studies and years of work with enterprise-scale cloud architectures, this book will benefit both novice and advanced cloud developers. It's complete with step-by-step explanations of essential concepts, practical examples, and self-assessment questions to help you build a shareable portfolio of completed projects, demonstrating your ability to build cloud infrastructure at scale.
The AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) is an open source software development framework that enables developers to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages such as Python, TypeScript, Java, C#, and others instead of traditional JSON or YAML templates. The development of AWS CDK has evolved over time, driven by the need for a more efficient and familiar way to define and manage cloud resources.
Since its initial release, AWS CDK has undergone continuous development and improvement. AWS has actively engaged with the community to gather feedback and make updates to the framework based on user needs. AWS CDK has seen regular updates with new features, bug fixes, and improvements to its performance, stability, and usability.
The development of AWS CDK has also been influenced by the growing adoption of cloud native application development practices, such as DevOps and GitOps, which emphasize automation, repeatability, and versioning of infrastructure configurations as code. AWS CDK has integrated with popular development tools and practices, including integrated development environments (IDEs), source code repositories, continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and AWS CloudFormation, to provide a seamless and efficient experience for developers.
AWS CDK has been extended to support multiple programming languages, allowing developers to choose the language that best fits their team’s skills and preferences. This has expanded the adoption of AWS CDK across a wide range of development communities, making it a popular choice for defining cloud infrastructure in a more familiar and productive way.
