Working with Amazon CloudFormation StackSets

Amazon CloudFormation StackSets extends the capability of stacks by enabling you to create, update, or delete stacks across multiple accounts and Amazon Web Services Regions with a single operation. Using an administrator account, you define and manage an Amazon CloudFormation template, and use the template as the basis for provisioning stacks into selected target accounts across specified Amazon Web Services Regions.

A stack set is a collection of resources, defined in a template and deployed into one or more accounts across one or more regions.

For information about StackSets region support see, StackSets regional support.

This section helps you get started using StackSets, and answers common questions about how to work with and troubleshoot stack set creation, updates, and deletion.
