Eric Johnson and technologists Adam Keller and Elad Ben-Israel explore the evolution of cloud development, discussing the transition from traditional Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to more integrated approaches like Infrastructure Plus Code. Elad, creator of the AWS CDK, and Adam Keller, senior technologist at AWS, look at how tools like the CDK and new languages like Wing are bridging the gap between infrastructure and application development. They emphasize the importance of opinionated frameworks that offer flexibility and customization, addressing challenges in cloud adoption and highlighting the need for clearer abstractions to empower developers and streamline operations.
