AWS CodeBuild is a simple service, and it doesn't need any specific advice or rules to follow. Everything is properly defined while configuring CodeBuild, and AWS can be used as optional documentation. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

If you run AWS applications, I advise those considering AWS CodeBuild to use the entire CodePipeline Suite (CodeCommit, AWS CodeBuild, and CodeDeploy). It's a great CICD tool compared to third-party options. I've used GitLab and Jenkins before, and while they're good, I prefer AWS solutions because they're reliable and fully managed, offering the best SLA in the market. I always recommend going with native tools when possible. Overall, I'd rate AWS CodeBuild ten out of ten.
CodeBuild integrates with other AWS services, enhancing the build environment's functionality. For instance, it works seamlessly with AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR). It allows you to build and deploy container images to ECR directly from CodeBuild. It is easy for someone with experience in shell scripting or writing code to learn. Once familiar with these skills, using CodeBuild becomes quite straightforward. Following the predefined stages organizes the steps effectively. This helps users build their architecture with ease. I rate it an eight out of ten.
I will definitely recommend the tool to others. In terms of overall cost, it costs the same as Jenkins. Some think that Jenkins would not cost much since it is open source. Though the software doesn’t cost, the underlying infrastructure will cost us. We also need resources to manage the tool. Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.
Build automation tools automate the time-consuming tasks inherent in creating a “build,” or usable version of an application. They automate and orchestrate the sometimes complex processes of compiling computer source code into binary code and packaging that binary code as well as running automated tests
Some PeerSpot members use build automation solutions. In reviews, they offer opinions on the most significant selection factors to consider when looking at this type of software. One theme...
