Has enabled automated deployments through continuous integration and supports multi-environment delivery
My recommendation for AWS CodeBuild to make it better for the next release would be something within AWS CodeBuild which can support the repository functions as well. It may not be as powerful as GitHub Actions, but it provides a very competitive price compared to GitHub Actions. GitHub Actions, if you want to use the YML CI/CD pipeline, gives a free tier of around three thousand hours per month. AWS CodeBuild is a little more expensive than that. However, if it supports the repository function as well along with it, then it will be a complete package. Everything would be in AWS, including the code versioning, code commit to the code infrastructure, to the code database, to the networking, and how the applications are accessed. Everything would be in one place, which would be very helpful. I believe AWS CodeBuild is a bit expensive because GitHub provides around three thousand minutes free, plus it has the free repository function as well. At the enterprise level, it charges maybe around nineteen dollars per user, though I do not remember exactly. In terms of AWS CodeBuild, I believe it is a bit expensive because it is providing only the deployment features. It is not providing the repository. In that comparison, I would say it is a little bit expensive.

Experimentation has boosted conversion rates and guides faster, safer feature decisions
The best features Split offers include A/B experimentation itself, multivariant experiments, and a limit exposure feature that allows us to manipulate the traffic going through the split. We can decide to send only 10% of the traffic or 100%, depending on our limit exposure design. Additionally, we have a tracking mechanism and live trail monitoring, making these tools really good. The limit exposure feature in Split decides if the experiment is healthy or not. For example, we enroll the experiment for 5% of users and check the experiment's healthiness from that. We verify if the on variant is working properly and if the off variant is functioning well to ensure that extra users are not affected if something goes wrong. That is the main feature of limit exposure. I would say Split has impacted us a lot because we use it for gating new features while going into production, ensuring that those features are not rolled out prematurely. Overall, our organization is positive about using Split.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"A valuable feature is the support for third-party repositories such as Bitbucket, GitLab, or GitHub."
"CodeBuild supports various platforms and coding, which offers an advantage."
"The integration with other AWS services has streamlined our workflow."
"It works seamlessly with AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR)."
"Scalability is a great feature with AWS CodeBuild, because after deploying applications the service automatically scales up and down according to our AWS needs using load balancing, which makes managing applications much easier without significant interruptions."
"The integration is a good feature."
"The most important thing is that it's self-contained in an AWS account, and it's all linked to the customer's AWS account."
"The tool is used to build and test code. I find its biggest advantages are elasticity and reliability. We can easily assign as many computing resources as needed to build our code, which is much simpler than traditional methods that require server upgrades. It's a serverless tool, so it's very flexible and elastic."
"Split is a great way to handle the config based on checks and in a dynamic way if you want to control your software without doing any deployment."
"Split has increased some of our CVR; for example, in a recent pop-up model experiment, our conversion was around 15% and once we started the experiment, the on-variant won by increasing the CVR up to 35%, making it a really good tool for determining which particular feature would deliver the expected CVR."
 

Cons

"While working on building images for multiple applications within a single script, I encountered an issue where looping functionality was not supported as expected."
"The deployment fails sometimes."
"They can further improve the integration of the Bitbucket for CodeBuild."
"One of the main challenges is that if the environment is not set up properly, it will result in issues such as image errors."
"There have been times when CodeBuild has shown some instability, like bugs or breakdowns."
"For improvement, I'd suggest more build instance-type options. There's a big jump from 15 gigabytes of RAM to 150, and I'd like something in between as the larger option is too expensive for our needs."
"I believe AWS CodeBuild is a bit expensive because GitHub provides around three thousand minutes free, plus it has the free repository function as well."
"Multiple clients have faced issues with pricing. After migrating from Azure to EC2, they were unexpectedly charged 100,000 rupees because the pricing details were not clearly visible."
"The UI of split.io can be improved."
"Additionally, we tend to move towards other issues related to Split due to flickering issues, which we observed because of latency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS CodeBuild is free. We only pay for our code's compute resources during the build process. For example, if our code takes ten minutes to build, we only pay for those ten minutes of computing time. CodeDeploy and CodePipeline are free because they're serverless and don't require computing resources. CodeCommit has minimal costs for storing code."
"We pay a monthly licensing fee."
"Despite the cost, it is worth the investment."
