CDK-based Continuous Deployment for OSS

Findy Agency is a decentralized identity agency following a microservice architecture. The agency's fully open-sourced deployment pipeline utilizes AWS CDK and GitHub tooling to offload the deployment worries from the small team.

Laura Vuorenoja from OP Lab has researched the area of self-sovereign and decentralized identity hands-on for several years. Together with her team, they have developed a unique solution for applications and individuals to utilize verifiable credentials. The project has batteries included; it provides even the deployment scripts as open-source.
