Stacks in this state can‘t be recovered without help from AWS Support. +- ❗Modifications to stack resources made outside CloudFormation can potentially lead to stacks stuck in UPDATE\_ROLLBACK\_FAILED mode. Stacks in this state can be recovered using the [continue-update-rollback command](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/devops/continue-rolling-back-an-update-for-aws-cloudformation-stacks-in-the-update_rollback_failed-state/). This command can be initiated in the console or in the CLI. The [--resources-to-skip](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/cloudformation/continue-update-rollback.html) parameter usable in the CLI can be useful if the continue-update-rollback command fails. - 🔸CloudFormation is useful but complex and with a variety of pain points. Many companies find alternate solutions, and many companies use it, but only with significant additional tooling. - 🔸CloudFormation can be very slow, especially for items like CloudFront distributions and Route53 CNAME entries. - 🔸It’s hard to assemble good CloudFormation configurations from existing state. AWS does [offer a trick to do this](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/cfn-using-cloudformer.html), but it’s very clumsy.
