Cross account deployments using a Customer Managed KMS key
In my previous blog I wrote about application pipelines. These CodePipeline use a S3 bucket. What if you have a need for a customer managed key instead of the Amazon managed key? And you want to deploy the CloudFormation templates cross account? In this blog I will explain how you can achieve this.
Building applications with pipelines
In larger organizations a lot of things are in place. Think of things like deployment pipelines for your applications. But how do you set those up using the services AWS provides? In this blog post I will guide you to how I do it for my pet projects.
Use EventBridge to handle API requests

Speedup python cli projects
Use our python-cli-tool cookiecutter project. Get an python cli project up and running in a few steps. In my previous speedup-event-driven-projects blog. I wrote how you could use cookiecutter to spin up an event driven project for AWS. In this blog post I will show you how you could do this for python cli projects.
Speedup event driven projects
Use our sam-eventbridge-project cookiecutter project. Get an event driven project up and running in a few steps. On the 3rd of October the AWS Community Day NL was held in Amersfoort. I gave a talk about CodeCommit and how you could use events to make your life easier.
How to work with different browser profiles
