AWS CloudFormation
Infrastructure-as-Code service — models and provisions AWS resource stacks from JSON/YAML templates for consistent, repeatable deployments. Most-used open-source equivalent is Terraform — cloud-agnostic IaC with a larger multi-provider ecosystem than CloudFormation's AWS-only scope; Pulumi is the common alternative when teams want IaC written in a general-purpose language (Python/TypeScript/Go) instead of a declarative template format.
