Summary

In this chapter, we looked at the other pieces of the AWS developer tools we are going to cover in depth in this book. We learned about deploying our software to different environments, both in the cloud and on-premises, using AWS CodeDeploy. We examined how CodeDeploy can be used to not only push out new versions of an application but also to control traffic during deployments. We also studied the AWS CodePipeline orchestration tool and how it as a service can incorporate not only all of the other three services we have been looking at from a development perspective but also other third-party partner tools as well.

In the next chapter, we will look at the AWS OpsWorks service and how this can be helpful for managing infrastructure and application services using stacks, especially if your team members are well versed in Chef or Puppet.
