AWS CDK

AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) is a tool that allows developers to define and manage cloud infrastructure using programming languages like Python, TypeScript, or Java. Instead of manually creating resources through configuration files or the AWS Management Console, developers write code that describes the infrastructure they need—such as servers, databases, or networking components. The CDK then automatically converts this code into detailed, machine-readable templates that AWS uses to build and configure the required resources. This approach simplifies infrastructure management, promotes consistency, and makes it easier to update or replicate environments in an efficient, code-centric manner.
