DevOps: Don't lose your head in the cloud (...)
summary
CloudFormation automates full AWS stacks for PHP/Symfony apps so teams stop clicking consoles: templates provision EC2, RDS, Route53 and CI/CD, spin up feature branches get disposable dev stacks in minutes with their own DB and fixtures, and register a subdomain; an AWS Image Handler solution runs serverless image processing; templates provide CloudFormation rollbacks and change sets to avoid surprises, support exports/imports for reuse, and teams use CDK for TypeScript templates or Terraform when they need loops or multi‑cloud.
