I believe the latest Versions of SST are not using the CDK anymore. Not that it change much at all in the end. Love to see architecture content :)

yeah SST Ion is using pulumi + terraform. I think these changes make SST much more adoptable compared to it's CDK approach prior.

I've been procrastinating learning Terraform, and this couldn't come at a better time. Great video Cody!

Wow, thanks for this video. I've been working on more frontend focus stuff for the last couple of years and all of this is novel for me. Found this video really helpful to wrap my head around

had my first contact with tf and aws a few weeks ago. It's mindblowing, really amazing stuff.. Nice video.

You are the best Cody!🎉 Speaking from a ton of other devs - I like to see a video about GitHub commands; rebase, merge, conflict resolve etc. Thanks 🙏

Since you mentioned testing, can you do a video where you test a crud API using a real database (integrations tests) ?

Super helpful, thanks!

Nice, great vid! Yesterday I moved from Terraform to Pulumi (python version) and to be honest I've liked it (prefer the cloud version) but prefer the terraform structure.

Good job love!

I honestly believe you can learn the basics of Terraform in a day. The sticking point is really the underlying cloud technologies. I think Terraform is great. It has so many integrations.

Super helpful

if we have complicated accounts and use a lot of services on AWS via clickops methodology. And decided to move to IAC. What i need to do? Source already created from UI. How i can manage conflicts ?

A guide to combine tf with docker / k8s / minikube would be interesting if this is a thing. But I don#t know why it should if you build your container straight production ready for the service it is supposed todo.

MUST READ ** Bro i have learnt full stack development but i always struggle with these microservices used in full stack like aws and other devops stuff like docker kubernetes that is used in full stack can u make a complete tutorial on the devops things that are required for full stack and their complete integration with next js websites. Pls bro ill make sure my whole college watches that tutorials. ❤

Hey coddy ,when can we expect next fullstack project from you ???Please teach us this time to deploy to vercel ,peer finder is also gud ,please make project videos

But why? What's the upside of using Terraform rather than AWS CDK?

I think the takeaway is to use IaC, not tf specifically

Aws cdk is lock-in with aws, additionally I’ve had issues with cloudformation (the thing cdk ends up using) enough to avoid it completely. Even SST is rewriting their IaC to use terraform and Pulumi instead of cdk due to various hacks and issues related with cdk.

i literally just opened up youtube to watch an "introduction to cloudformation" video, and was wondering if i should/could use terraform instead. Never done non-trivial IaC before

I’d pick terraform over cloudformation personally.

​@WebDevCody I agree now too, been testing it out and it's surprisingly pretty intuitive. I'm assuming cloudformation is more tightly "coupled" to aws, so the portability of terraform just seems like a better solution most of the time.

great tools, but how to integrate all of this cool stuff with Kubernetes?

you could probably use terraform to spin up your k8s cluster and configure the stuff necessary for EKS on aws.

Basic steps are: use terraform to spin up the eks (if you're not going with a manages solution) cluster, use terraform to manage your manifests (deployments, ingress, etc). However, I'd look into some gitops tools for the latter portion like ArgoCD. You can't really beat it for managing manifests. One thing it does really well is solve the whole, "What if someone updates a manifest in the cluster making your manifest in github out of date with terraform?" problem. It also allows you to use helmcharts if you want as well. Very cool tool. That rhymed. Unintended.

I had a stroke reading the first part of this title 😂
