Summary

In this chapter, we took a brief look at problems and issues with the current IaC tools and methods. We introduced CDK, got a taste of what it is capable of, and understood some of the inner workings of CDK, as well as how potentially revolutionary it is.

In the next chapter, we will dive deeper into setting up our workspace, directory structures, and environment correctly. We will also explain the concept of constructs and stacks and get to know other important aspects of CDK.
