Synopsis "AWS CDK in Practice: Unleash the power of ordinary coding and streamline complex cloud applications on AWS"
Uncover the secrets of building maintainable, extensible, and virtually indestructible cloud applications on AWS with Cloud Development Kit (CDK)Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookKey FeaturesBuild complex cloud applications with the revolutionary AWS CDKGain practical knowledge of AWS CDK to leverage the powerful toolset of AWSEmploy practical exercises & architectural design patterns for developing modern serverless applicationBook DescriptionAs cloud applications are becoming more complex, multiple tools and services have emerged to cater to the challenges of running reliable solutions. Although infrastructure as code, containers, and orchestration tools, such as Kubernetes, have proved to be efficient in solving these challenges, AWS CDK represents a paradigm shift in building easily developed, extended, and maintained applications. With AWS CDK in Practice, you'll start by setting up basic day-to-day infrastructure while understanding the new prospects that CDK offers. You'll learn how to set up pipelines for building CDK applications on the cloud that are long-lasting, agile, and maintainable. You'll also gain practical knowledge of container-based and serverless application development. Furthermore, you'll discover how to leverage AWS CDK to build cloud solutions using code instead of configuration files. Finally, you'll explore current community best practices for solving production issues when dealing with CDK applications. By the end of this book, you'll have practical knowledge of CDK, and you'll be able to leverage the power of AWS with code that is simple to write and maintain using AWS CDK.What you will learnTurn containerized web applications into fully managed solutionsExplore the benefits of building DevOps into everyday code with AWS CDKUncover the potential of AWS services with CDKCreate a serverless-focused local development environmentSelf-assemble projects with CI/CD and automated live testingBuild the complete path from development to production with AWS CDKBecome well versed in dealing with production issues through best practicesWho this book is forThis book is for traditional full stack developers looking to explore the new world of Infrastructure as Code and serverless applications, solutions architects seeking to define their services with AWS CDK, and DevOps specialists searching for a better management technique to configure files.
