CloudFormation

Empowering organizations to manage infrastructure as code

Managing and scaling AWS resources can be a daunting task for any organization. The sheer number of resources to be managed, combined with the different environments and accounts they may exist in makes it a challenge to manage everything effectively. CloudFormation empowers organizations to manage the entire infrastructure or AWS resources in a text file, or template. They can reuse the templates to replicate the infrastructure in multiple environments, and manage deployments across multiple AWS accounts and regions. This means you can treat your infrastructure like code and manage it more efficiently, effectively, and at scale.


Why opt for Visionet CloudFormation services?


Cost-reduction

You can reduce costs by avoiding manual effort in over-provisioning. You only provision the resources that you need, and you can easily scale up or down as required.

Faster time-to-market

CloudFormation enables faster time to market, by preparing infrastructure. You can deploy resources and applications quickly and easily, without having to spend time setting everything up from scratch.

Seamless production upgrades

You can enjoy seamless production upgrades, by upgrading in a controlled and predictable manner. This means that you can test your upgrades before deploying them to production, so you can avoid unexpected downtime or service Interruptions.

Zero downtime

Enables near-zero downtime, by avoiding downtime and service interruptions in manual mode. This means that you can keep your resources and applications up and running, even when you need to make changes or updates.

Increased team productivity

Increases team productivity, by spending less time on manual management tasks and provisioning. This means that your team can focus on developing new features and applications, rather than managing infrastructure.

Error reduction

Visionet CloudFormation Services reduces errors in new environments setup, by eliminating mistakes and inconsistencies. This means that you can ensure that your resources and applications are deployed correctly, every time.

Card Layout

Deployment automation

It automates deployments, by managing deployments with AWS CLI for CloudFormation, and integrating with CI/CD tools. This means that you can manage the entire resource lifecycle, and deploy resources automatically, reducing human error in deployments.

Legacy app migration

CloudFormation is perfect for migrating legacy applications, by building them using infrastructure as code principles and practices. This means that you can migrate your legacy applications to AWS, without having to worry about compatibility Issues or other problems.

AWS account management

CloudFormation is ideal for managing multiple AWS accounts, by setting up a common set of services across.


How our organization uses CloudFormation?


Pointer-tick-icon

Infrastructure as code

We define infrastructure as a set of templates, this allows us to speed up resource provisioning process and makes it easier to version control our infrastructure and track changes over time.

Pointer-tick-icon

Template reuse

We reuse templates across different AWS accounts and regions.

Automated provisioning

    Using AWS CU for CloudFormation we automate the process of creating, updating and deleting resources with CI/CD tools, allowing us to manage resource lifecycle. When the developer pushes the code to the repository a build is triggered which does the CloudFormation stack deployment, this ensures resourcesare deployed automatically and thus reduces human error in deployments.

    Solution template

      Find modern and industry-proven cloud-native solution templates as port of code output that consists of all required components eg, logging exception handling notifications, security, session management, caching, file management, testing frameworks, application insights, and more.

      Automated assessment & planning

        Automated discovery, code analysis, and application synopsis from PowerBuilder platform help you to have quick and accurate estimations and project planning leading to a successful migration experience. PowerBuilder Analyzer tool generates summarized and detailed code analysis reports that give the complete picture of the applications.

        Pointer-tick-icon

        Rollbacks

        Allows us to roll back changes if something goes wrong.

        Pointer-tick-icon

        Stack sets

          We have a lot of AWS accounts, using Stack sets we can deploy and manage templates across multiple AWS accounts and regions. Making it easier to manage infrastructure at scale. When the developer pushes the code to the repository a build is triggered and a CloudFormation Stackset is deployed on configured accounts.

          Pointer-tick-icon

          Stack sets

            Allows us to detect changes between the actual state of resources and expected state defined in templates. This makes it easier to identify and correct discrepancies in our infrastructure.

            Pointer-tick-icon

            Nested stacks

            We follow a modular approach when building our templates to allow reusability. Furthermore, nested templates help us manage complex infrastructure by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable components.

            Pointer-tick-icon

            Template validation

              We have CICD jobs that validate templates using the validate-template API. This allows us to catch syntax errors and incorrect property values before they cause problems in our infrastructure. When the developer pushes the code to the repository a build is triggered which does the CloudFormation template validation using cfn-lint and taskcat, then deploys the CloudFormation stack

              Pointer-tick-icon

              Parameter validation

                Using parameter level validation with allowed values and constraints; we can ensure that the input parameters do not cause any problems in our template deployment.
