Raquel Guimaraes- Third party infrastructure as code
1 like513 views
The document presents a solution for managing multiple third-party SaaS applications using Infrastructure as Code, specifically through custom CloudFormation resources. It discusses the challenges faced with current setups and proposes a structured approach to define and manipulate these resources alongside other infrastructure components. The focus is on enhancing reusability and maintaining state management using CloudFormation.
