Basic GovCloud Support

GovCloud Support

Summary

This feature request would provide basic support for GovCloud regions by adjusting partitions throughout templates and the code base to leverage the ${AWS::Partition} pseudo parameter. It would also add conditional statements for services that do not exist in GovCloud. i.e., Tagging Policies.

Motivation

GovCloud customers are looking for a robust CI/CD framework based on AWS native tooling. ADF is one of the most feature rich options. With small changes this framework could easily be adapted to support a wider audience.

In Scope

• Modify the code base to support the arn:aws-us-gov GovCloud partition.
• Provide support for the us-gov-west-1 region as a primary install location.
• Avoid failures due to missing features in GovCloud. The only item identified in the code base is Tagging Policies.

Out of Scope

Account Vending in GovCloud - Account vending in GovCloud requires accounts to be created in commercial regions and linked. The changes needed to support this would be significant and will not be addressed by this feature.

interesting! we are currently building govcloud support in org-formation (https://github.com/org-formation/org-formation-cli). if you find it interesting feel free to ping me and we can compare noted. easiest way to do so is over the org-formation slack (https://join.slack.com/t/org-formation/shared_invite/enQtOTA5NjM3Mzc4ODUwLTMxZjYxYzljZTE5YWUzODE2MTNmYjM5NTY5Nzc3MzljNjVlZGQ1ODEzZDgyMWVkMDg3Mzk1ZjQ1ZjM4MDhlOGM).

Hi @OlafConijn! Thanks for sharing your tool. Looks great! I'll connect with you on Slack. Any tool that can work across commercial and GovCloud is of interest.
