Debugging and troubleshooting are easy, and the integrations streamline the workflow
Pros and Cons
  • "The integration with other AWS services has streamlined our workflow."
  • "The deployment fails sometimes."

What is our primary use case?

We are creating pipelines with the help of the solution. We need to do some testing and deployments over our web server. We create a new bucket in which we create a CI/CD pipeline and put our deployments into it. CodeBuild deploys it through GitHub on the target server.

What is most valuable?

If we face any issues, we can find out where the issue is. We can check it on the script. We can easily do debugging or troubleshooting. We had development projects. We are using CodeBuild for five to ten applications. We deploy them first in the development environment. After the Sanity tests and the UAT, we deploy them on the production environment. The integration with other AWS services has streamlined our workflow. It is similar to any other product. We must define the roles. It is easy to give permission to other services.

What needs improvement?

The deployment fails sometimes. We need to reset the pipeline to do the deployment.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for the past four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the tool’s stability an eight out of ten. Some applications must be checked end-to-end because Java does not work sometimes, and we do everything manually and restart. We must check whether all parameters are correct on the scripting side and whether there are any dependencies we must know about.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We can create multiple pipelines. If we need multiple deployments for multiple projects, we create multiple pipelines to do the deployment. We have 50 to 80 users.

How are customer service and support?

The support is good.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was difficult the first time since we had to configure it end-to-end. We got some errors. After the configuration, we did not face any major roadblocks. The deployment took five to ten minutes.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Apart from Jenkins, I love to use CodeBuild.

What other advice do I have?

I will recommend the tool to others. We must know the dependencies in our projects, the services we need to deploy, and the different things needed in the scripts. We must do the IAM configurations on AWS before initializing the pipeline. Overall, I rate the products nine out of ten.
