What is AWS CloudFormation?
AWS CloudFormation is an AWS Cloud-native service that allows developers to create, manage and monitor AWS-specific and third-party resources that influence the lifecycle of AWS cloud-native services. For example, with AWS CloudFormation, developers can easily update EC2 compute resources or influence the resource allocation and resource lifecycle pertaining to S3 storage in an intuitive, easy-to-process format.
The importance of leveraging a service like AWS CloudFormation comes from the importance of cloud-native resource allocation and even third-party resource allocation and management. AWS CloudFormation provides a convenient, intuitive provisioning mechanism for not only AWS cloud-native services but third-party services as well. With the use of AWS CloudFormation, developers benefit by spending less time on managing specific AWS cloud-native resources and third-party resources, and allows them to focus on more critical aspects of their AWS environment related to business-critical processes.
