Please don’t take this advice as gospel. Cloudformation has a few problems: - it only lets you manage AWS resources. And even if you’re not running multi-cloud, you’re bound to have a bunch of non-AWS resources like a DB vendor somewhere that you want to put on IaC as well - it’s slow as molasses - even if you feel HCL is bad, it will probably not be as bad as the huge swathes of YAML/JSON Cloudformation has you write - despite what the console makes you believe, drift detection is practically non existent
