CloudFormation - Features, integrations, alternatives & more
What it does
This action allows developers to manage infrastructure resources in Amazon Cloud Services across all regions and accounts with a single text file
How it works
The new CloudFormation action in Buddy lets you easily deploy, update and remove CF stacks. For example, you can create a pipeline that will perform the following for every pull request:
- Provision infrastructure in your AWS account with a CF template file
- Deploy your application to the server
- Start the application
- Run integration tests
- Clean up the CF stack once everything is over
