Summary

CloudFormation is the perfect tool when we need to automate our AWS environment. This service enables us to implement an infrastructure as code approach to our AWS deployments and deliver the applications that are running in AWS in a much more automated fashion. In this chapter, we took a look at the elements of CloudFormation and the way it works and we took a detailed look at a sample template and the procedure to deploy the template. The next chapter will help us understand how OpsWorks comes in handy when we do not have a complete control of our environment.
