Yep I definitely agree with the importance, it’s probably the most impactful technical debt we have. Clone environments is a big driving force for it too.
I guess what I was hoping is that Beanstalk wasn’t designed with infra as code in mind, but things like Fargate were, and somehow it had become less horrible. Maybe that’s just never going to happen though and it’s the nature of the problem.
Appreciate the pointer toward CDK too, I have used it a tiny bit and it definitely seemed worth exploring further.
- irjustin 6y agoThe code differences between ElasticBeanstalk and Fargate are not very far, but JUST far enough to be annoying. Because you've worked with Beanstalk in the past, I would personally stick with it unless I'm looking to fight 2 issues at the same time - Learning Fargate & Learning CDK/CloudF/Terraform. Fargate is not a panacea - Elastic Beanstalk does have very cool options/features.
- mcintyre1994 6y agoI really appreciate the insight here - thanks a lot :)
