AWS CodeBuild – Build and test code with continuous scaling

Re: AWS CodeBuild – Build and test code with continuous scaling
#2As someone who has had to shop around and try out a bunch of continuous integration services (Travis, CircleCI, Snap, Solano, to name a few), this looks pretty interesting! We've stayed away from managing our own CI infrastructure but this could be a good (and cheaper) solution. It doesn't seem to actually be available yet, but it'll be worth a look.

#3Still no way to build iOS applications.

#4This sounds a bit like BuildKite which has worked out pretty well for us! They provide an elastic AWS CI environment that you run in your own AWS account, and scales up/down as builds are queued up.

Hi you can build iOS applications using Distelli and your own build servers - https://www.distelli.com/docs/kb/using-your-own-build-server

Re: AWS CodeBuild – Build and test code with continuous scaling
#9I'm trying to find if they offer or plan to offer these features:
1. Caching. CircleCI and Travis cache intermediate build artifacts (e.g., virtualenv in python) to reduce build time.
2. Github pull request integration (red cross on pull requests if the build fails).
3. Chat integration. Sending a message to slack or hipchat when the build fails.
4. SSH into build container. Very handy for rare but difficult to locally reproduce build bugs.
Interesting offer though. We found that we would pay less than 5$ a month for our build needs and they would run concurrently.

CodeDeploy isn't a CI server and you need to integrate it with one (Codeship, Jenkins, etc.).
