What is Cloud Formation Templates?

AWS CloudFormation is a service that allows you to define and provision AWS infrastructure as code. You create templates (written in JSON or YAML) that describe the AWS resources you want to create and configure. CloudFormation then uses these templates to automate the process of creating and managing those resources in a consistent and repeatable way. It's commonly used for deploying applications, setting up development environments, and managing infrastructure across different AWS regions and accounts.
