Correct answer: AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK).
Why this is the answer
AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) allows you to define and provision cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages like Python, TypeScript, Java, .NET, and Go. It synthesizes these definitions into AWS CloudFormation templates, which then deploy the resources. This approach enables developers to leverage their existing coding skills for infrastructure as code. AWS CloudFormation is incorrect because while it provisions resources, it uses declarative JSON or YAML templates, not familiar programming languages directly. AWS CodePipeline is a continuous delivery service, not for defining infrastructure. AWS Systems Manager is a collection of capabilities for operational insights and management of AWS resources, not for provisioning them programmatically.
