AWS Serverless Microservices with Patterns and Best Practices - AWS CDK Lifecycle

The video tutorial explains the AWS CDK lifecycle, detailing each phase: construction, preparation, validation, synthesis, and deployment. It describes how the CDK deploy command works, the role of each phase, and the importance of validation and synthesis in creating deployment artifacts. The tutorial concludes with a brief mention of the next video topic.

What is the primary purpose of the construction phase in the AWS CDK lifecycle?

• To deploy resources to the AWS environment

• To instantiate and link all defined constructs

• To generate deployment artifacts

• To validate the constructs for deployment

During which phase are constructs automatically set to their final state?

• Construction

• Validation

• Preparation

• Synthesis

Why is early validation recommended in the AWS CDK lifecycle?

• To speed up the deployment process

• To ensure accurate and safe code execution

• To simplify the synthesis phase

• To reduce the number of constructs

What is the main output of the synthesis phase?

• Validation reports

• Construct instantiation logs

• CloudFormation templates and deployment artifacts

• AWS Lambda functions

In the deployment phase, what does the CDK toolkit use to deploy resources?

• Construct instantiation logs

• AWS Lambda functions

• Synthesized deployment artifacts

• Validation reports
