  • Linking CloudFormation directly to the S3 bucket.
  • Uploading the template without any modifications.
  • What happens to the resources created by a stack after the stack is deleted?

  • The resources become unavailable for any future operations.
  • You can choose to retain certain resources upon deletion. (correct)

    Study Notes

    CloudFormation Overview

    • CloudFormation provides broad support for AWS services.
    • If a desired feature isn't directly available, Lambda functions interacting with the AWS SDK can be invoked during stack creation for full service API coverage.
    • Upload templates directly to CloudFormation or store them in Amazon S3, pointing CloudFormation to the location.
    • Invoke "create stack" to initiate resource creation within the specified template.
    • One stack can create and manage resources across multiple AWS services in a single AWS Region.
    • Monitor stack creation progress.
    • Successful completion results in new AWS resources in the account, and a stack object (handle) remains for future actions.
    • The stack object enables updating or deleting stacks, including selective deletion of items during stack deletion.
