Overview of this book

Expert AWS Development begins with the installation of the AWS SDK and you will go on to get hands-on experience of creating an application using the AWS Management Console and the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI). Then, you will integrate applications with AWS services such as DynamoDB, Amazon Kinesis, AWS Lambda, Amazon SQS, and Amazon SWF. Following this, you will get well versed with CI/CD workflow and work with four major phases in the release process – Source, Build, Test, and Production. Then, you will learn to apply AWS Developer tools to your Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) workflow. Later, you will learn about user authentication using Amazon Cognito, and also how you can evaluate the best architecture as per your infrastructure costs. You will learn about Amazon EC2 service and will deploy an app using it. You will also deploy a practical real-world example of a CI/CD application with the Serverless Application Framework, which is known as AWS Lambda. Finally, you will learn how to build, develop, and deploy the Application using AWS Developer tools such as AWS CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, and AWS CodePipeline, as per your project requirements.

Chapter 4. CI/CD in AWS Part 1 – CodeCommit, CodeBuild, and Testing

AWS with DevOps provides services to build software products reliably, rapidly, and delivers them using a set of flexible services. It simplifies the deploying of application code, automates the release process and provision, manages the infrastructure and monitoring of applications, and infrastructure performance. It also helps to automate manual tasks and manage complex environments, at any scale.

To achieve DevOps on the cloud, AWS provides Developer tools to securely store and version the source code and automatically build, test, and deploy applications.

AWS Developer tools provide services such as CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CodePipeline, CodeStar, and AWS X-Ray.

In this chapter, we will understand CodeCommit and CodeBuild services which are useful to commit the code into private Git repositories then build the code and test it.

At the end of the chapter, you will be aware of the AWS Developer tools, such as CodeCommit...
