An example of configuration of Cloudformation nested applications deploying resources globally used and shared by AWS services and applications.

bootstrap

It should be deployed before deploying any further AWS applications.

It includes the following resources:

• The lambda-testevent-schemas Eventbridge schemas registry, used to share AWS Lambda test events with other users in the same AWS account;
• IAM roles required by CloudFormation to deploy StackSets to this account, across multiple regions.
