thx much, i'll digest :slightly_smiling_face:

tho.. just scanning over it... how much should i reference other stacks?  for best practices?

Inside your components, never. Make the inputs for your component configurable and then do the stack reference in your main program 

ie, i lean towards creating a "core" stack, with VPC + EKS + few supporting things... logging buckets, cloud trail etc... and applications reference that stack... but would compartmentalizing it further be better?   Logging/sec/compliance things be best in their own stack, referencing a vpc stack?
