Correct answer: AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK).
Why this is the answer
The AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) allows you to define your cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages like TypeScript, Python, Java, and .NET. It synthesizes these definitions into AWS CloudFormation templates, enabling you to provision and manage your resources programmatically. This approach offers the benefits of imperative programming (loops, conditions, functions) for infrastructure as code. AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed continuous integration service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces deployable artifacts. AWS CloudFormation is an infrastructure as code service that allows you to define resources using declarative templates (YAML or JSON), but not common programming languages directly. The AWS CLI is a command-line tool for interacting with AWS services, not for defining infrastructure programmatically.
