AWS CloudFormation: 2024 Year in Review | Amazon Web Services
Briefly

AWS CloudFormation allows infrastructure modeling and provisioning using code-based templates in formats such as JSON or YAML. The 2024 enhancements include optimistic stabilization with the CONFIGURATION_COMPLETE event, which reduces stack creation times by up to 40%, and early resource properties validation, assisting developers by detecting errors before resource provisioning. These updates aid organizations in managing multi-account strategies and enhance the overall deployment process by simplifying troubleshooting and providing robust configuration governance.
In March, we launched early resource properties validation checks, which help users fail fast and reduce deployment steps by validating templates before provisioning begins.
The new CONFIGURATION_COMPLETE event allows for up to 40% faster stack creation times by enabling parallel resource provisioning as configurations complete.
