Description

AWS CDK constructs can represent single AWS services as well as higher-level abstractions that consist of multiple, related resources. These constructs can be found in the AWS Constructs Library and are organized into three layers.

Layer 3 (L3) resources are also referred to as Solution Constructs. Solution constructs are open-source extensions of AWS CDK constructs. These solutions provide well-architected patterns for a variety of common infrastructure use cases. The goal of L3 solution constructs is to accelerate the developer's experience as they build out their applications.

In this lab, you will work with an L3 CDK construct to learn how to implement predictable and repeatable patterns into your applications.

Important: This hands-on lab uses the latest AWS CDK v2. For hands-on labs and challenges that use the AWS CDK v1, refer to the Get Hands-on with the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK v1) learning path.
