CloudFormation

No CloudFormation resource types map to this service yet. Resources can still be created via the SDK or CLI.

Known limitations

Crawlers run but only enumerate catalog metadata; no real schema inference from S3 files.
Jobs store definitions but never execute Spark/Python shell scripts.
