cdkd is a drop-in CLI for AWS CDK apps, using direct AWS SDK calls instead of CloudFormation for faster dev and test deployments. It complements the AWS CDK CLI, with the project advising against production use for now.

What if deploying your AWS CDK application didn't require waiting through the entire CloudFormation cycle? Let's rethink deployment speed.

Hands-on workshop at AWS Student Community Day, IUC Douala: I built and taught a full CI/CD pipeline on AWS using CDK (TypeScript), ECS Fargate, CodePipeline and CodeBuild, with automated testing, security scans and rollback. Source code and README are public on GitHub.

I built an OSS CLI tool called cdkd (CDK Direct) that speeds up deployments by up to 15x without...

Wire SQS to Lambda in CDK with a dead-letter queue, a safe visibility timeout and partial batch responses, so one bad message doesn't replay the whole batch.

An architectural breakdown of AWS full-stack and serverless components, illustrating how users interact with Authentication (Amazon Cognito), API & Routing (Amazon API Gateway), Compute (AWS Lambda), and Database (Amazon DynamoDB), supported by Infrastructure as Code (AWS CDK) and Production Deployment (Amplify Hosting & CloudFront).

Test Step Functions with the TestState API: check retry, backoff and catch with mocks in TypeScript, without a deployment and without an IAM role.

Serverless Framework vs CDK vs SST: the same Lambda API built three times, the differences in engine, licence and dev mode, plus my clear recommendation.

The Adjudicated Query pattern pairs the Amazon Quick chat agent with a bounded MCP server over a deterministic rules engine to deliver provably complete, defensible compliance answers. This post walks through the reference architecture and a deployable AWS CDK sample, using lease compliance as the running example.

S3 versioning keeps every old version until a rule removes it. Three lifecycle rules in CDK cap that growth, plus a caveat to check before deploying.

AWS Continuum finds code vulnerabilities, proves them in a sandbox and delivers fixes as pull requests. How to set it up and keep costs under control.

AWS WAF announces automatic SDK integration for Amazon CloudFront distributions. When you enable it, CloudFront adds the script tag for the AWS WAF JavaScript SDK to the HTML it serves, with no change to your application code, build process, or deployment. The SDK supplies the client-side signals used by three AWS WAF managed rule groups: Bot Control at the targeted inspection level, Fraud Control account takeover prevention (ATP), and Fraud Control account creation fraud prevention (ACFP). Previously, supplying those signals required you to add a script tag to every page of every application you wanted to protect, and to maintain that tag across releases. For teams running many applications, or serving pages produced by systems they do not control, this created recurring work and a common source of misconfiguration, where a protection was enabled in AWS WAF but the client-side integration was missing. Enabling automatic SDK integration on the web ACL protecting your CloudFront distribution removes that per-application work. Automatic SDK integration is available for web ACLs that are used with Amazon CloudFront and contain at least one of those managed rule groups. You can configure it using the AWS Management Console, CLI, SDK, CDK, or CloudFormation. In the AWS WAF console, the setting appears with the managed rule group settings and is on by default for new web ACLs that you create with one of those rule group. When you create a web ACL programmatically, the setting is off by default. Web ACLs created before this release are unchanged. There is no additional charge for automatic SDK integration. For requirements, limitations, and Content Security Policy guidance, see Automatic SDK integration for CloudFront distributions in the AWS WAF Developer Guide.
