This could have been some custom cdk constructs. Then at least you can plug in SQS / SNS / DynamoDB / CW / IAM all in one solution. Flightcontrol doesn't seem to offer these.


I’ve been getting great mileage out of service catalog products. They’re a great middle ground between custom CDK and in-house PaaS. You can even use them as CloudFormation resources so they compose well and users are agnostic to which CDK language (or Terraform even!) that is used to write them. I’m currently experimenting with using them to expose terraform modules as CDK constructs.


Service Catalog is on my top 5 list of terrible AWS developer experiences, and I've used practically every mainstream service.


Oh interesting, what was your experience with it, out of curiosity?

For my part, there was some initial friction making it usable from the publisher perspective but haven’t really had issues using it from the consumer side.
