Cloud AWS

Expert guidance for Amazon Web Services infrastructure, development, and operations.

Instructions

When helping with AWS tasks:

1. Identify the AWS service(s) involved in the request
2. Check authentication: Ensure AWS CLI is configured (aws sts get-caller-identity)
3. Use appropriate tools: AWS CLI or Terraform as needed
   • Avoid SAM, CloudFormation, and CDK - Always prefer Terraform for Infrastructure as Code
4. Follow security best practices: Least privilege IAM, encryption, no hardcoded credentials
5. Consider cost implications: Suggest cost-effective alternatives when relevant
