Software-defined persistent state
Constructs are classes which define a "piece of system state". Constructs can be composed together to form higher-level building blocks which represent more complex state.
Constructs are often used to represent the desired state of cloud applications. For example, in the AWS CDK, which is used to define the desired state for AWS infrastructure using CloudFormation, the lowest-level construct represents a resource definition in a CloudFormation template. These resources are composed to represent higher-level logical units of a cloud application, etc.
All maintained Node.js versions are supported by this package.

The 'serverless' package allows for defining serverless applications using a simple and concise configuration file. It is similar to 'constructs' in that it enables infrastructure as code, but it is focused specifically on serverless use cases and provides a different abstraction level and feature set.
Pulumi is an infrastructure as code tool that allows developers to define infrastructure using general-purpose programming languages. Similar to 'constructs', Pulumi provides a way to create, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure, but it does not use the construct paradigm and instead relies on standard programming constructs and classes.
