Hi People 👋 I work with clients and often hear this question - what are the differences between Terraform and AWS CloudFormation and AWS CDK, and which one is better.
So in order to stop always reinventing the answer I put the comparison into a blog post + also added small hands-on proofs of concept to prove
the differences e.g. in troubleshooting or drift detection.
Any feedback welcome! 💛 (Yeah I know it's long, I didn't intend it to be read as a book/story but rather to come back to it when I need to refresh my memory about some specific aspect of IaC)
