Automatic Rollbacks Enhance Reliability While Complex Templates Add to Difficulty
Our overall experience with AWS CloudFormation has been solid and dependable, particularly as an IaC tool for our AWS native environments. We found it really helpful for our repeatable infrastructure provisioning needs. We also use it for our change tracking needs as well as rollbacks and audits. It even saved us a couple of times when failed deployments were about to become an incident, but thanks to its native rollback functionality. It does sometimes get overwhelming if the template is huge and complex, but I would say it's still worth it.
