DEPLOY CLOUDFORMATION TEMPLATE

We will use CloudFormation to set up the AWS environment for the labs. AWS CloudFormation is a service that gives developers and businesses an easy way to create a collection of related AWS and third-party resources, and provision and manage them in an orderly and predictable fashion.

We will create one CloudFormation stack which includes all the resources we will be using in the following labs.

When you finish all labs, please be sure to delete the stack as per the Clean up section to avoid unnecessary usage charges.

Click Next in Create stack screen, accept the default stack name etl-ttt-demo in Specify stack details screen and click Next.

Click Next in Configure stack options screen, check the checkbox next to I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names. and click Create stack.

You should see a new CloudFormation stack with the name etl-ttt-demo being created. Wait for the status of the stack to be CREATE_COMPLETE before moving on.

You can click on the stack name and go to Resource tab to check what AWS resoures were created as part of the CloudFormation stack. You should expect to wait approximately 10 minutes for the stack to move to the CREATE_COMPLETE state.
