Here’s a sample workflow to demonstrate the use of the AWS CloudFormation Orchestration app to automate provisioning of a LAMP(Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) tech stack.

1. Create the Event when a Service Request is raised.

2. You can then pull in the App Node which will have the following configurations:

App Name: AWS CloudFormation - Orch

App Action: Create Stack

Notes when Configuring Inputs:

  • The Stack Name is an identifier that helps you find a particular stack from a list of stacks. A stack name can contain only alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive) and hyphens. It must start with an alphabetic character and can't be longer than 128 characters.
  • Template URL: Location of file containing the template body. The URL must point to a template (max size: 460,800 bytes) that is located in an Amazon S3 bucket.

    • 3\. Finally, to validate the stack creation successfully initiated, the condition node is added to check if the status code is 200.
