LandingZone

Learn how to create, update, and manage AWS ControlTower LandingZones using Alchemy Cloud Control.

The LandingZone resource allows you to create, manage, and configure AWS ControlTower LandingZones for your AWS accounts, providing a secure and compliant environment for governance.

Minimal Example

Create a basic LandingZone with required properties and a few common optional tags.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const landingZone = await AWS.ControlTower.LandingZone("myLandingZone", {
  Version: "1.0.0",
  Manifest: {
    accounts: [],
    organizationalUnits: []
  },
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Environment", Value: "Production" },
    { Key: "Project", Value: "CloudMigration" }
  ]
});

Advanced Configuration

Configure a LandingZone with an adoption flag to allow existing resources to be adopted.

const advancedLandingZone = await AWS.ControlTower.LandingZone("advancedLandingZone", {
  Version: "1.0.0",
  Manifest: {
    accounts: [
      { accountId: "123456789012", accountName: "DevAccount" }
    ],
    organizationalUnits: [
      { unitName: "DevOU", accounts: ["123456789012"] }
    ]
  },
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Team", Value: "DevOps" }
  ],
  adopt: true
});

Example with Detailed Manifest

Create a LandingZone with a detailed manifest structure including multiple accounts and organizational units.

const detailedLandingZone = await AWS.ControlTower.LandingZone("detailedLandingZone", {
  Version: "1.0.0",
  Manifest: {
    accounts: [
      { accountId: "111111111111", accountName: "ProductionAccount" },
      { accountId: "222222222222", accountName: "StagingAccount" }
    ],
    organizationalUnits: [
      {
        unitName: "SecurityOU",
        accounts: ["111111111111"]
      },
      {
        unitName: "DevelopmentOU",
        accounts: ["222222222222"]
      }
    ]
  },
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Owner", Value: "CloudOps" }
  ]
});

Example with Versioning

Create a LandingZone while specifying a version for better resource management.

const versionedLandingZone = await AWS.ControlTower.LandingZone("versionedLandingZone", {
  Version: "2.0.0",
  Manifest: {
    accounts: [],
    organizationalUnits: []
  },
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Version", Value: "2.0" },
    { Key: "Status", Value: "Active" }
  ]
});
