AWS CodeCommit

 AWS CodeCommit is a source control service that is provided by Amazon Web Service which is fully managed. It is a version code service. It helps to manage and store assets such as codes or documents or any other type of file such as binary file etc. It allows the team to work collaboratively in a secure and highly scalable environment. It eliminates the need for third-party version control and also eliminates the need for your own source control system. You can work easily with your existing git tools by using the CodeCommit service. You can store your source code and other files within a few clicks and can also perform pushing, pulling, or commit of data with ease. It allows you to cross-link the two AWS accounts easily to share repositories in a secure environment but need to remember a few things that do not share SSH key or Aws credential.


Git Vs AWS CodeCommit

Differences:

  • AWS CodeCommit is more secure than the git as AWS uses IAM roles for securing techniques which allows users to share their repositories to the limited person and in highly secure environment.
  • Git interface comes out to be more interactive than the AWS CodeCommit .
  • Git is basically connected to the github whereas AWS CodeCommit is managed and hosted by the AWS which is more reliable platform.

Similarities:

  • Both can integrate with AWS cloudbuild that can import your github and other Google cloud storage to your specifications and produce containers.
  • Both uses git repositories.
  • Both supports code review.

Benefits of using AWS CodeCommit


  1. Highly Scalable: It scales up or scales down according to your data and can handle large repositories and the number of branches with ease.
  2. Fully Manageable: As a developer you need to focus more on the development rather than the management or maintaining the hardware or the software. This service provide you to focus more on production and it manages all the underlying needs and make it highly available and durable.
  3. Work collaboratively: It allows multiple users to work upon the single source code at different section at a same time with ease.The changes and the updates are later merged and pushed in the repository.
  4. Security: It provides a secure environment to store your source code, documents, binary files and many more. It uses the encryption technique to secure your stored data.AWS uses IAM roles to secure your data which allows you to share your data to specific people.
  5. Migration- Its most advantageous feature that allow user to migrate its git repository to the CodeCommit easily.

Steps for creating a repository in CodeCommit :

  • Step 1: Login to your AWS account and navigate to the Amazon Management console. In the search bar search for the AWS CodeCommit . A CodeCommit service window will appear.

  • Step 2: Click on create repository to create the repository in aws CodeCommit . Type a name and add a description of it and then click on create.

  • Step 3: A success message will appear on the screen showing successful creation of repository.

  • Step 4: There are two ways to connect your repository HTTP and SSH. In this we are using HTTP. Click on create file to add your file.

  • Step 5: In this we are typing a text file.you can store your source code or any other binary files.

  • Step 6: Add Filename, Author name, Email ID, Commit message and click on Commit Changes.

commit to master

  • Step 7: This is how you can create your repository easily within few clicks.

Integrating AWS CodeCommit with other tools and services:

AWS CodeCommit can be integrated with a variety of tools and services to facilitate a seamless workflow for developers. For example, AWS CodeCommit can be integrated with AWS CodePipeline to automate the build, test, and deploy process for code changes. This can help to reduce the time and effort required to release new features and updates to your applications.

AWS CodeCommit can also be integrated with other version control systems such as Git. This can be useful if you have an existing codebase that you want to migrate to AWS CodeCommit, or if you want to continue using your existing Git tools while taking advantage of the security and scalability of AWS CodeCommit.

Different Types of Reports in Scrum - Agile

  Introduction to Agile Reporting I’m not going to elaborate on the Agile Framework itself here.  1. Sprint Burndown At a Sprint-level, the burndown presents the  easiest way to track and report status  (the proverbial  Red / Amber / Green ), i.e., whether your Sprint is on or off-track, and what are the chances of meeting the Sprint goals. The burndown chart – when used right – can provide  near-real time updates  on Sprint progress. “If your team do it right, then they would take in just the right amount of work into a sprint.” At the beginning of a Sprint, the Scrum team perform Sprint Planning and agree to take on development work worth a certain number of Story points. This forms the basis for the Sprint Burndown chart. The total story points agreed at the beginning of the sprint make up the y-axis, and the individual dates in the Sprint make up x-axis. If your team do it right, then they would take in just the right amount of work into ...

Agile Retrospective

  Guide to agile retrospectives for continuous improvement An agile retrospectives is an opportunity for agile development teams to reflect on past work together and identify ways to improve. Agile teams hold retrospective meetings after a time-boxed period of work is complete (typically a sprint lasting two to four weeks). During the agile retrospective, the team discusses what went well, what did not go as planned, and how to make the next work period better. Even if you are not on a development team, you can probably relate to the concept of retrospection. Have you ever worked hard on something only to realize later that you should have done it differently? It is not always a good feeling, but the solutions you uncover in hindsight can be valuable input for your next try. The same goes for your successes — acknowledging what went well and is worth repeating can be just as impactful. What is an agile retrospective? In short, an agile retrospective is a meeting...

Agile product management

  What is agile product management? How do we define agile product management? It is a product development philosophy that emphasizes a flexible and human — rather than a rigid process- or tool-oriented — approach to defining product strategy and carrying out work. Teammates focus heavily on customer feedback to make improvements and adjust roadmaps throughout the product management process. This creates more responsive teams, leads to quicker iterations, and creates a more lovable experience overall. Benefits of agile product management Agile redefines how product managers think about planning and building products. Traditionally, new customer experiences were planned, designed, implemented, and tested in a step-by-step way. This meant that new functionality was delivered sequentially. Once requirements were defined and handed off to the development team, it was difficult to make any changes. The failure rate of large-scale and lengthy software development proj...
