_CloudFormationNote

 

Choosing between CloudFormation stacks vs. dedicated tasks

Both approaches have specific use cases and pros/cons, for example:

  • Some resource actions do not have dedicated CloudFormation support (though can be implemented as Custom Resources meanwhile).
  • Some resources do not have dedicated task support (though can be provisioned via the AWS Credentials Variables task and the AWS CLI meanwhile).
  • CloudFormation stacks allow you to manage your infrastructure as code, at the expense of a steeper learning curve and everyday usability
  • Dedicated tasks are easier to get started with and maintained via Bamboo's user interface
