AWS DevOps combines the power of Amazon Web Services (AWS) with DevOps practices to accelerate software development and deployment.
DevOps is a methodology that encourages collaboration between development (Dev) and operations (Ops) teams.
AWS stands out for DevOps due to its scalability, variety of managed services, pay-as-you-go pricing, and high security standards.
Before diving into AWS DevOps, it’s essential to understand the basics of cloud computing.
To implement DevOps on AWS, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the essential tools for version control, build automation, deployment, and pipeline management.
AWS CodeCommit is a secure, fully managed source control service for hosting Git repositories on AWS.
AWS CodeBuild is a managed build service that compiles source code, runs tests, and packages software.
AWS CodeDeploy automates the deployment of applications to various compute services (like EC2 and Lambda) and enables control over the deployment process.
AWS CodePipeline is a CI/CD service for automating the software release process, defining a pipeline of steps (source, build, deploy) for releasing code.
Implementing CI/CD on AWS requires integrating services like CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodePipeline.
