AWS CodePipeline

A fully managed AWS service that orchestrates release pipelines with source, build, test, approval, and deploy stages.

Definition

CodePipeline integrates with CodeCommit, GitHub (via CodeStar/CodeConnections), S3, ECR, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CloudFormation, ECS, and Lambda. Actions can run in parallel or sequence, and manual approval actions add gates.

Example

A pipeline detects a GitHub push, builds with CodeBuild, and deploys a CloudFormation stack after manual approval.

Exam tip

CodePipeline orchestrates; CodeBuild builds; CodeDeploy deploys. Know which does what.
