Cleanup Day

As opposed to building new features today (though the day is young), taking the time to do some cleanup of some of the artifacts such as the AWS CDK deployment scripts. If you don’t take the time to do this sort of thing on a regular basis and burn a sprint on it — you will end up with a lot of code or processes that are too expensive to change and just live in the codebase forever.

Previously the CDK scripts were sitting in the server git project itself — and while that isn’t terrible, separating out these artifacts from the development code base just makes sense since they are separate concerns for different people.
