Learn how AWS Code services work together to automate the software delivery lifecycle. You'll map CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodePipeline to their pipeline stages, build a multi-stage pipeline with approval gates and failure notifications, and configure CodeBuild with buildspec.yml to automate your builds from source to artifact.

Introduction to CI/CD on AWS

Spot the missing service

Map services to pipeline stages

Explore the CodePipeline console

Building pipelines with CodePipeline

How artifacts flow between stages

Add an approval gate

Set up failure alerts

Automating builds with CodeBuild and buildspec.yml

Review a buildspec.yml

Classify buildspec phases

Fix a failing build

CI/CD Pipelines with AWS Code Services

Explore how to release applications safely using CodeDeploy. Configure appspec.yml with lifecycle hooks, implement in-place and blue/green deployments, set up canary and linear traffic shifting, and manage API Gateway stages for per-environment configuration.

Deployment Strategies with AWS CodeDeploy

Define and manage your infrastructure as code. Author CloudFormation templates with change sets and drift detection, deploy serverless applications with SAM and CDK, manage approved versions across environments, and integrate CloudFormation into CI/CD pipelines with StackSets and nested stacks.

Infrastructure as Code and Environment Management

Stop deploying manually. In this course, you'll build CI/CD pipelines that automatically build, test, and deploy your applications using AWS Code services. You'll implement deployment strategies like blue/green and canary releases with CodeDeploy, add safety gates and failure notifications to your pipelines, and define your infrastructure as code with CloudFormation, SAM, and CDK. By the end, you'll be able to set up a pipeline that takes code from commit to production with minimal manual intervention.
