Stacks
Flexible automation of some common AWS tasks. Hopes to make CloudFormation a bit less painful for humans.
Who should use this?
Nobody, really. It's still barely half-baked. And not properly tested or documented.
What does it do?
Stacks was born out of a need to deploy web apps to AWS.
Project goals:
- Simple configuration
- Flexible project structures
- Flexible naming schemes
- Repeatable build / deploy / redeploy / teardown
- Support for multiple environments (dev/test/prod)
- Cross-stack references across environments
- Built on CloudFormation (hence "Stacks")
- Provide sensible default configs where possible
Target capabilities:
S3
- create / delete buckets
- upload / sync files
- configure basic web hosting
Lambda
- configure S3 bucket to store code (easy multi-environment support)
- configure groups of functions together
- sensible defaults for logging, etc.
- shareable api gateway configs
- repeatable create / deploy / redeploy / teardown
DynamoDB
- Still mostly pass-through to CloudFormation
Things to consider:
- Would AWS SAM be helpful?
- Could there be more cooperation between configs and templates?
- Should the
env
concept be part of more default values?
