The CodePipeline suite is a solution developed by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). It can be used to create automated pipelines on the AWS environment and allows the deployment of code modifications on the go. This course explains the fundamentals of the DevOps culture and why organizations adopt it. 

In this course, you will learn how the different components of AWS CodePipeline work together, from managing repositories to building automation and handling CI and CD alike. You will first get introduced to continuous integration and continuous delivery/deployment, followed by various CI/CD tools. Next, you will learn the basics of CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodePipeline. Finally, you will use CodePipeline to deploy a Java application. 

This course will help you form a strong foundation in DevOps tools. By the end of this course, you’ll gain hands-on experience deploying a Node.js and Java application using the CodePipeline suite.

CI/CD Using Native Tools Available on AWS

# Overview
A CodeBuild project needs a set of instructions on how to package/compile the source code after it has been downloaded from the code repository into our chosen build environment. 

According to AWS, a `buildspec.yml` file is a collection of build commands and related settings in YAML format that CodeBuild uses to run a build.

The `buildspec.yml` file is usually placed at the base of the project directory. The file contains the following:

- The build commands needed to build the application
- The definition of different environment variables as needed
- The required tools for the build to succeed
- The artifact(s) to archive

For building software projects, there are different native build tools depending on the programming language. Below are some of the popular ones:

- Maven
- Ant
- Gradle
- npm
- gulp
- Grunt
- Make

Learn how to write a buildspec.yml file for your build project.
