AWS CDK with Go: Build Scalable Cloud Infrastructure

Defining cloud infrastructure shouldn't require learning a new domain-specific language. With the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), you can provision robust cloud resources using the Go programming language you already know. This text-based course guides you from cloud development basics to deploying fully functional, scalable serverless applications. You will gain a clear understanding of how to model your infrastructure as reusable code, transitioning from manual console configuration to automated, repeatable deployments. What you'll learn: Understand the fundamental differences between AWS CDK stacks and constructs; Build serverless workflows combining Lambda, DynamoDB, and API Gateway using Go; Apply Go-specific patterns and modules to structure your infrastructure code; Deploy, update, and tear down AWS resources safely using the CDK CLI; Organize code into reusable custom constructs for cleaner architecture; Implement local validation and diff strategies for your cloud templates. You will start with core cloud concepts and CDK terminology before progressing through step-by-step written explanations that walk you through building a complete serverless application. Each section focuses on logical progression, ensuring you understand the why behind every stack and construct. This course is designed for developers and system administrators new to AWS CDK who want to leverage Go for infrastructure as code. No prior cloud deployment experience is required, though a basic understanding of Go syntax is helpful. Start writing your infrastructure in Go today.
