In episode 5, we chat with Elad Ben-Israel, Creator of AWS CDK and Co-Founder/CEO at Monada, to talk about how and why CDK was created, how Elad built a high-adoption community surrounding the CDK project, and what's next for Elad. Tune-in today! Elad Ben-Israel is the creator of the AWS CDK, CDK8s, JSII and Projen. After an amazing journey, Elad has recently left the comforts of AWS to start a new company called Monada. Monada’s mission is to democratize the cloud by reimagining cloud development from the ground up (pun intended of course). Elad lives in Tel-Aviv with his husband and 4-year-old twins, and in his spare time attends Burning Man and sweats at the local CrossFit gym. Elad has given several talks in the previous days of CDK in front of large audiences at multiple conferences around the world.
