> I believe there was a case last year when one of the new AWS features was available in Terraform before it made it to CloudFormation :) Yes, this has been known to happen, here is one example: https://stackoverflow.com/a/42142791/2518355 https://stackoverflow.com/a/42142791/2518355 - this AWS feature was added Sep 21 2016, Terraform resource released support on May 11 2017, CloudFormation resource released support on Jun 6 2017. However, several points should be added to this comparison: - CloudFormation supports Custom Resources so you can always implement new AWS features yourself with a few lines of JavaScript, without waiting for the official resource implementation to be published. - CloudFormation resources have extensive documentation, and are officially maintained + supported by AWS.
