There aren’t many improvements that can be made. In one of my projects, I initially didn't implement CodeDeploy directly. Instead, I stored my private key in Secret Manager and integrated it with my build spec to seamlessly work with GCP's Cloud Build. However, after using CodeDeploy, I haven't encountered any significant issues or areas that urgently need improvement. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with the features and functionality of AWS CodeDeploy.

I know about Jenkins. I have automated multiple applications through Jenkins. When using Jenkins, I need to have more options in AWS CodeDeploy. Jenkins has more than 2,500 plugins. AWS CodeDeploy should have all the plugins similar to the ones offered by Jeniks. AWS CodeDeploy doesn't provide multiple plugins like Jenkins, which is a shortcoming where improvements are required. If AWS CodeDeploy introduces a new GUI in the tool, it would be better.

Our main priority is to follow best practices as much as possible. If we do that, we can achieve our goals with the help of DevOps. For example, we don't keep things hard-coded. Currently, our repository is on AWS CodeCommit. So, we are integrating everything dedicatedly into the AWS environment. We're building our codes with the help of AWS CodeBuild. We are providing all permissions for AWS CodeCommit and AWS CodeBuild. We are deploying those things with the help of AWS CodeDeploy. Recommending the solution to other users depends on their requirements. If someone wants a dedicated AWS environment, they can choose AWS CodeDeploy. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.
