The Complete Course of AWS CDK (Cloud Development Kit) 2025

Create and deploy your first aws cdk application by initializing with cdk init, exploring bin and lib, and deploying with cdk deploy, while running npm run test and managing credentials.

Explore the construct key and construct trees in AWS CDK, mastering their anatomy, root and child relationships, dependencies, cross-stack references, and how to build and optimize reusable constructs.

Define AWS resources in a CDK application and access attributes like the queue URL. Learn to reference resources across stacks and use multiple languages.

Explore pre-built constructs in AWS CDK and learn how L1, L2, and L3 constructs power resource provisioning through composition, scope, and props within stacks and apps.

Explore writing custom AWS CDK constructs, deploying apps, and best practices for secure environment setup, synthesis, and versioned construct development.

Explore AWS CDK custom constructs to create reusable abstractions for resources, enable parameterized configurations, expose outputs, and use the synth entrypoint in the min directory.

learn to manage aws cdk stacks, organizing constructs into deployment units, deploying across environments, and monitoring, securing, and optimizing costs with best practices.

Create and manage multiple AWS CDK stacks across production and development environments, synthesize and deploy your app, and handle environment-specific configuration.

Test your understanding of AWS CDK concepts, including infrastructure as code, environment variables, stack deployment order, and cross-stack outputs.

Learn how to create an API, a Lambda function, and an event trigger using AWS CDK in TypeScript, including API Gateway integration with S3-triggered events and an event rule.

Answer five quiz questions on events and lambdas in AWS CDK. Learn how CDK generates CloudFormation templates, API gateway integration, and S3 as an event source.

Master unit testing and debugging in AWS CDK applications by writing modular, isolated tests with mock data, and integrating them into CI/CD pipelines for reliable cloud infrastructure.

Explore AWS serverless debugging and testing through real-time insights with AWS X-Ray, local testing with AWS SAM Local, automated unit testing with AWS CodeBuild, and change auditing with CloudTrail.

Learn how to manage identities and roles with AWS IAM, exploring the management console, creating users and policies, and applying fine-grained, temporary permissions, all implemented with the AWS CDK.

Answer five module seven quiz questions to test your understanding of AWS CDK and IAM concepts, including authentication and authorization of resources, and defining an IAM role with AWS CDK.

Explore how CI/CD pipelines automate deploying AWS CDK code through dev, staging, and production branches, using blue-green, canary, and rolling deployments with code pipelines and Jenkins.

Explore automating deployments with AWS CDK CI/CD pipelines, configuring CodeBuild, CodePipeline, and Elastic Beanstalk for infrastructure as code and automated deployment from GitHub.

Build and deploy a CI CD pipeline with AWS CDK by creating an application stage, Elastic Beanstalk environment, and a CodeBuild project that automatically deploys your app.

Test your understanding of AWS CDK CI/CD pipelines, including Elastic Beanstalk environments, CodePipeline constructs, and CodeBuild roles for building and testing code.

Explore AWS CDK patterns, constructs, stacks, and synthesis. Master versioning strategies like semantic versioning for team collaboration, and deployment pipelines with code pipelines, canary releases, blue-green deployments, and CloudWatch monitoring.

Explore advanced AWS CDK practices, outlining constructs, stacks, and code pipelines to implement CI/CD, with notifications via SNS and GitHub source actions, and best-practice deployment workflows.

Explore AWS CDK best practices for code pipelines, including removal policies, secret management, path design, deployment sequencing, and notification-driven optimization.

Review five multiple-choice questions covering AWS services like Step Functions, EventBridge, Lambda, and ECS, with insights on deployment customization, event integration, auto scaling, and container orchestration.

Initialize a fresh AWS CDK project from scratch in TypeScript, install dependencies, create the first app, and prepare deployment with an S3 bucket, Lambda, and notifications.

Celebrate completing the AWS CDK course by applying hands-on practice to build, deploy, and manage serverless applications with CDK constructs, stacks, IAM roles, and CI/CD pipelines.
