AWS Bites

11. How do you move away from the management console?

In this episode, Luciano and Eoin discuss the good and the bad of the AWS Management Console (a.k.a. the web console) and why you should consider migrating to Infrastructure as Code (IaC) as soon as possible, especially for your production applications.

In this episode we mentioned the following resources:

- Cloudformation: https://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/

- CDK: https://aws.amazon.com/cdk/

- Serverless Framework: https://www.serverless.com/

- SAM: https://aws.amazon.com/serverless/sam

- Terraform: https://www.terraform.io/

- Former2: https://former2.com/

- Import or create (e.g. if the resource already exists in production). With CDK: https://loige.co/create-resources-conditionally-with-cdk
