Create or use an existing CloudFormation template using JSON or YAML format.
Save the code in an S3 bucket, which serves as a repository for the code.
Use AWS CloudFormation to call the bucket and create a stack on your template. 
CloudFormation reads the file and understands the services that are called, their order, the relationship between the services, and provisions the services one after the other.
