Managing low-code environments with AWS CloudFormation and Azure Resource Manager
Automate testing and validation: Before deploying your templates, it's important to test and validate them to ensure that they will work as expected. Use tools like AWS CloudFormation Linter and Azure Resource Manager Template Tester to automate this process.

Alternatives to Terraform
Honestly I've had good luck writing clean Cloud Formation. It's AWS only. But Nested Stacks can help keep things pretty clean and tools like cfn-lint do a pretty good job of preventing you from going too crazy with spaghetti code. Additionally, as it's all json/yaml, you can parse it to look for common problems your organization wants to enforce. So you can ensure things like specific tags your roles/vpc etc..., or usage of an "approved" set of AMI, requiring an EKS/RDS cluster to be split across availability zones; they're all just a test in your CI pipeline away.

Creating a Multi-Account CI/CD Pipeline with AWS CodePipeline
CodeBuild will run a linting check against the CloudFormation Template using cfn-lint and will then run cfn-nag to check for patterns that indicate insecure resources within the CloudFormation template.

App with self-contained infrastructure on AWS
A linter for our AWSCloudformation stack called cfn-lint

how did you get good at iac-cloudformation
cfn-lint and cfn_nag or other tools of that nature to check as you write so you don't need to continually try to deploy only to find that you've done something dumb.
-
Validating cloudFormation templates
https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/cfn-lint as mentioned will do what you've explicitly called-out.
I use cfn-lint for this. Works great in a CI pipeline for example, and goes much further than just checking validity: it also checks all manner of good style etc…
-
CloudFormation locally
cfn-lint can do basic validation and rule-based linting. Highly recommend using it even if it doesn't solve your problem.
-
Source Control your AWS CloudFormation templates with GitHub
To help validate your AWS CloudFormation templates you can use a tool called cfn-lint.

In 2024, please switch to Firefox
That is really nice! I currently use AWS Extend Switch Roles extension[1] to switch profiles, but an automated way to confine those roles to their own profiles would be very neat.
