open-next VS aws-cdk

The NextjsSite construct allows you to effortlessly create and manage open-next, which is a great alternative for hosting Next.js on Vercel. Being defined within an SST App, you can easily integrate other AWS services, making it incredibly powerful. However, if you're using the latest and most advanced features of Next.js, such as Server Components with the Next.js App Router, you may encounter some challenges.

https://github.com/serverless-stack/open-next seems like what you're looking for?

Have a look at open-next https://github.com/serverless-stack/open-next, still takes a little time but it's solid.

Amplify doesn't support all nextjs features by itself as far as I know, which is why this project exists: https://github.com/serverless-stack/open-next

The features section on the open-next readme calls out a lot of the functionality that it gives you over a custom server.

But that would be a static website right? I want to support a full dynamic website using serverless. Something like: https://github.com/serverless-stack/open-next (this is for Next.js)

https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk#at-a-glance is the "generate cloudformation using code," and is the AWS version of troposphere as best I can tell

environment: Specifies the environment variable that will be available to our Lambda function. In this case I wrote an environment for RDS Database. Anyway, later I will write about AWS CDK using Python for creating database clusters, etc.

Today, I will show you how to build Amazon Location Service, which allows you to build location-based applications within your AWS environment using AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) and AWS CloudFormation. I will also show examples of the recently popular CDK Migrate and AWS CloudFormation IaC generator.

AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK): is an open-source software development framework to define your cloud application resources using familiar programming languages.

I am not one to build programming languages on a whim. In fact, I've spent the last five years building the AWS CDK, which is a multi-language library that addresses some of the challenges I am talking about by allowing developers to define cloud infrastructure using their favorite programming language.

I recently started exploring SST as an alternative to my favorite full-stack set consisting of Projen, AWS CDK, and React. I have been thoroughly impressed with the experience so far. In this article, I will demonstrate how to create a Next.js App Router S3 Picture Uploader using SST.

AWS CDK

For KMS 🔑, Each key is ~$1/mo, and with CDK, keys are generated on a massive scale, if not centralized.

Here is a github repository containing the code and instructions on how to automate this whole setup using AWS CDK.

Now that you have a working smart contract event listener, we'll deploy the resources to AWS using AWS CDK, which is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool. AWS CDK allows you to configure, deploy, and manage AWS cloud resources using popular programming languages such as TypeScript.
