### Pros

"AWS CloudFormation provides an easy way to deploy aws artifacts in a declarative way, you can learn the syntax of each resource from aws documentation easily, you can use aws existing CI/CD pipelines to do the deployment and for testing too."

"AWS CloudFormation makes infrastructure management simple by automating deployments, ensuring consistency, and reducing manual errors across environments."

"By defining resources in YAML or JSON templates, we can deploy and replicate entire environments consistently without manual configuration."

### Cons

"Writing and managing templates can feel complex and time-consuming compared to some newer infrastructure-as-code tools."

"Debugging errors in large templates can be difficult, and the error messages are sometimes not very clear."

"Debugging stack failures can also be challenging at times due to less intuitive error messages."
