Declarative or Imperative? Hmm...

I've become a master of the AWS SAM model which specifies the relationships declaratively. Now AWS CDK has come out and it could make some things easier - like keeping pipelines loosely coupled.

First thoughts - it's yet more code to ensure works.

I find the YML templates much more readable.
