AWS CDK is a concept that allows you to use coding languages to create infrastructure as code, making it more flexible and powerful than traditional config languages. CDK offers benefits such as improved developer experience, multi-regional deployments, and a programmatic approach to infrastructure as code. It is a suitable choice for AWS users, particularly those familiar with CloudFormation. CDK can be used to migrate from CloudFormation to a more efficient and user-friendly infrastructure management tool. CDK also provides drift detection and supports multi-region deployment, making it a popular choice for managing infrastructure on AWS.

Introduction to the AWS CDK: Infrastructure as Node
Colin Ihrig

Member of the Node.js Technical Steering Committee
The AWS CDK is an infrastructure as code tool that supports multiple programming languages and helps mitigate concerns about vendor lock-in. It uses JSII to support different languages and allows you to write code once and get the same API across different languages. The CDK simplifies resource creation and management in AWS, addressing the verbosity and error-proneness of CloudFormation. CDK applications consist of apps and stacks, with stacks mapping to CloudFormation stacks. The CDK provides a more compact and familiar syntax compared to CloudFormation, making it easier for JavaScript developers to handle the entire stack.
