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.

Notifications could be added, or SNS integration could be included so that notifications can be received on every build, whether the build fails or succeeds.
