Head of Development at Abyss
Employs advanced deployment strategies and manages CI/CD workflow efficiently
Blue-green deployment has been incredibly beneficial for handling complex deployments in AWS CodePipeline. It allows me to test changes in an isolated environment before deploying them to the entire user base. Additionally, the CI/CD support provided by AWS simplifies the integration process by adding YAML files to projects, enabling AWS to manage the entire CI/CD workflow.

DevOps Team Leader at Elbit Systems Ltd
Saves time for developers, which saves money for the company
We are using the Incredibuild agent to run multiple processes on all available cores. This is the improvement that we did. Instead of the machine's core doing task after task, it is now running on multiple machines. In my working environment, it is saving time for all our developers in regards to the time consumption of the builds. My team has four people who manage and interact with Incredibuild as a product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AWS CodePipeline offers multiple integrations and it has its own set of features in the area of code scanning and dynamic code testing."
"AWS CodePipeline has valuable integration features."
"AWS CodePipeline does a very good job as compared to Jenkins."
"The product is a one-stop solution that you can use to integrate, deploy and host your application."
"The tool's recent version helps us to run pipelines in parallel. The integration with other AWS services has greatly impacted our use of AWS CodePipeline. It made tasks such as integrating with Jira and provisioning instances much easier."
"In AWS, the Cloud DevOps is a managed service from CodeCommit and this has removed the need for a lot of manual steps."
"The solution is pretty stable and it's a perfect solution if you are just using AWS."
"CodePipeline allows integration with any source code and facilitates deployment to EC2 or ECS, which is highly valuable."
"For each build that runs where I need to generate a code, it takes around half an hour instead of an hour and a half."
"It is saving time for developers, which is saving money for the company."
 

Cons

"In AWS CodePipeline, we can only use certain tools for which AWS provisions plugins."
"I would appreciate if we don't have to install any agents, even for EC2, to deploy using CodeDeploy into EC2 servers. It would help if AWS allows application deployment without requiring the Fortify agent installation."
"While CodePipeline's UI has improved, further enhancements in user experience are necessary to make it more intuitive."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"It would be a much better tool if it could be made compatible with other cloud services as well since this is an area the product currently lacks."
"CodePipeline is not an option for us at all, as CodePipeline is strictly tied to AWS and we have workloads on Azure and Google."
"From my perspective, some in-built capabilities could be enhanced."
"The solution could improve the documentation. Sometimes we have some issues with the documentation not updating after releasing .NET 6. We had some issues with building the code pipeline, and it was not updating the documentation. It's better to update the code documentation."
"Stability could be improved. I don't know the reason for the instability because there are no logs that help me to understand the problem."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of this solution is dependent upon your needs including how many jobs you daily and how many times the developer will be changing codes and completing deployments."
"The product is quite expensive compared to other solutions."
"The price of the product depends on how many times you run it. The tool offers a pay-as-you-go model."
"It is a straightforward approach where you pay for the resources you consume as they offer a subscription-based licensing model."
"AWS offers free business or enterprise support services."
"The pricing is manageable."
"AWS charges you based on the number of pipelines you have and how active they are, and I also think that the root account user knows about all the price-related metrics."
"Compared to other cloud services, AWS CodePipeline falls a bit more on the pricey side. I see that the price of the product has been increasing for the past few years."
"Its pricing and licensing are annoying. Every year, I need to renew. If I miss the deadline date, all my processes will stop working. So, I would prefer that I wouldn't need to renew every year, instead have another solution for it. Or, if we could have an enterprise license agreement with the company, then the development team wouldn't need to spend time renewing licenses."
