Overview of CloudFormation StackSets

https://www.udemy.com/aws-certified-solutions-architect-professional/learn/v4/t/lecture/13314716?start=0

Overview

• Suppose you need to configure AWS Config across all regions
• Prior to StackSets, a CloudFormation stack had to be maintained in each region
  • 10 Regions = 10 CloudFormation stacks
  • Especially tricky if you have multiple AWS accounts
• This is solved using StackSets
  • Single stack that can be deployed from a single region

Demo

• CloudFormation > StackSets > Select StackSet
• <StackSet Name>
  • StackSet info
    • Name: <StackSet Name>
    • Description:  Be specific – describe what this is going to do.
  • Stack instances
    • Shows all locations and accounts the stack has been pushed into
    • AWS account:
    • AWS region
    • Stack name: ARN of the stack
    • Status
    • Status reason

FROZE!
