Our organization uses CodeCommit as a cloud native alternative to our on prem GitHub. This is beneficial for many reasons. From an architecture perspective, it does not always make sense to reach on prem to get source code or binaries. Keeping the source code / version control where the deployment is living allows a seamless integration that satisfies all security requirements. It also offers scalability that is hard to beat with our own solutions.
- Lightweight
- Native IAM integration
- Collaboration
- High Availability
- 20% reduction in traffic to on-prem GitHub
- No additional server capacity required
- No overhead or maintainance
CodeCommit is a cloud native solution where GitHub is typically run on prem which requires a team to manage the physical servers and the software on top of it. CodeCommit is a better choice when doing Cloud focused workloads. GitHub Copilot offers more features than the leaner CodeCommit, however does not have the same integration options.
