About:
org-formation is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool specifically designed for managing AWS Organizations and the resources within them. It allows you to define your AWS organization structure, accounts, and resource deployments (like IAM roles, SCPs, and CloudFormation stacks) in YAML/JSON templates. Its main value is providing a single, version-controlled source of truth for complex, multi-account AWS environments, enabling safe and repeatable provisioning.

Key Features:

Define AWS Organizations structure (OUs, accounts, policies) as code
Deploy and manage resources across multiple AWS accounts from a central template
Built-in drift detection to identify configuration changes outside of IaC
Support for complex cross-account dependencies and resource sharing

Use Cases:

Establishing and maintaining a secure, multi-account AWS Landing Zone
Automating the provisioning of new AWS accounts and their baseline configurations
Managing Service Control Policies (SCPs) and guardrails across an organization

Alternatives:

AWS Control Tower – AWS-managed service for multi-account governance, less flexible but easier to start with
Terraform AWS Provider – General-purpose IaC tool that can manage AWS Organizations but requires more manual orchestration for multi-account workflows
