AWS CloudFormation Fundamentals: Mappings
Get my complete CloudFormation AND Terraform course. After all...why not both? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://awsdevops.io/p/infrastructure...
Welcome back to the AWS CloudFormation Fundamentals series! With the parts of template anatomy that we've covered thus far, we're down to just three more major sections beginning here with Mapping.
In this video we'll look at situations where mapping can be useful in a template (specifically when dealing with regions for Amazon Machine Images, aka AMIs) and the intrinsic function Fn::FindInMap that you can use in Conditions. There are three key things to keep in mind with mapping that we also discuss for you to keep in mind if you go on to use mapping in future templates. Next we will dive into Transforms!
I've included a link below to the main Mapping documentation page that we use in this video:
