  • aws-control-tower-customizations

    The Customizations for AWS Control Tower solution combines AWS Control Tower and other highly-available, trusted AWS services to help customers more quickly set up a secure, multi-account AWS environment using AWS best practices.

  • For my landing zone I used the Customizations for AWS Control Tower (CfCt) project. When I created my landing zone the Landing Zone Accelerator was not yet available. I still need to evaluate if I can switch, but my initial concerns are the cost of running it. CfCt has low costs and depending on your usage it might even fit in the free tier. The Landing Zone Accelerator comes with VPCs and transit gateways and some other services that will generate costs regardless of what you are doing with the landing zone.

  • aws-control-tower-automate-account-creation

    Automate the creation of multiple accounts in AWS Control Tower using a batch account creation process

  • When I want to build something new, I need a new development account. For account creation I use aws-samples/aws-control-tower-automate-account-creation. I altered the solution to directly inject a record into the DynamoDB table that triggers the account creation process. I have a simple command that I can run on the command line that requires the following arguments: workload name, description and the environment type.
