FlexStack embraces Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices, seamlessly integrating with essential tools like Terraform, CDK, and CloudFormation. Our platform is built with compatibility in mind, enabling you to leverage these tools within our ecosystem effortlessly. Our aim is to replace these tools where possible and enhance them where we cannot replace them.
CDK
Integrating with CDK is easy because we are using CloudFormation to deploy your resources. The stacks we provision on your behalf are loaded with the exports required to import and reference any critical resource we deploy. CloudFormation exports are discoverable in the FlexStack dashboard on each component page.
Terraform
Terraform data sources make it easy to reference AWS resources that are managed outside of its state. You can find any resource you'd need to reference (e.g. a VPC) in the FlexStack dashboard under the "Resources" tab within your environment or within each component page.
