Infrastructure as Code Best Practices
Terraform, CDK, and CloudFormation — when to use each and how to structure your IaC for multi-environment deployments.
Deep-dives and hard-won lessons from the SOSW engineering team — serverless on AWS, event-driven data, IaC, ML in production, and the spec-first systems our agents build and run.
