# Automated Infrastructure Deployment with AWS CloudFormation, Terraform and Github Actions
Deploying new Security Group, VPC with a public subnet and a single EC2 instance in AWS CloudFormation Stack using Terraform and Github Actions.
## Project Architecture
## AWS CloudFormation Stack Events
## AWS CloudFormation Stack Resources
## AWS CloudFormation
AWS CloudFormation enables you to create and provision AWS infrastructure deployments predictably and repeatedly. It helps you leverage AWS products such as Amazon EC2, Amazon Elastic Block Store, Amazon SNS, Elastic Load Balancing, and Auto Scaling to build highly reliable, highly scalable, cost-effective applications in the cloud without worrying about creating and configuring the underlying AWS infrastructure. AWS CloudFormation enables you to use a template file to create and delete a collection of resources together as a single unit (a stack).
