Manage your infrastructure like you would your application using AWS CDK &Projen

Description:

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has always been an opinionated field. Do you use HCL or just write raw CloudFormation templates? Maybe you get through the day writing SAM templates. What if there was an easier way? What if there was a way to write your infrastructure alongside your application in the same language? One deployment pipeline, all based in CloudFormation so it can utilize the native AWS roll back and drift management.In this session, we'll be looking at how to build stacks using the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK). We'll go over some code samples, how it distills down to CloudFormation, and how to build re-usable constructs to iterate quickly. In addition, we'll also be exploring Projen, a, "batteries-included" project orchestrator and toolset.

Host/Sponsor: HealthVerity

HealthVerity was started because the healthcare industry needed a more accurate and reliable way to combine disparate datasets (in a HIPAA-compliant manner) to reveal patient insights and power innovation. As we set out to solve these challenges, the vision for what could be accomplished with our comprehensive data ecosystem and ever-evolving technologies became something much greater than a solution to data interoperability.

Today, HealthVerity partners with top pharma, payers and government agencies to synchronize Identity, Privacy, Governance and Exchange through the IPGE approach and advance the science.
