As part of both re:invent related launches, as well as community-prioritized requests from our public coverage roadmap, we are pleased to announce support for over two dozen new and updated CloudFormation resource types. You can now use CloudFormation templates to configure and provision additional features for AWS CodePipeline, Amazon API Gateway, AWS Lambda, Amazon Elasticsearch Service (Amazon ES), AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and more AWS resources. CloudFormation periodically releases additional support, making it easier for developers to configure and provision AWS services.
