Amazon Web Services is making a concerted effort to attract developers to the cloud, today announcing a trio of tools -- CodeDeploy, CodeCommit, and CodePipeline -- for getting code into the cloud and managing it afterward.
CodeDeploy, as the name suggests, is a service for deploying released code to a "fleet" of EC2 (Elastic Compute) instances while leaving as much of the fleet online as possible. "It can accommodate fleets that range in size from one instance all the way up to tens of thousands of instances," said Jeff Barr, chief evangelist for Amazon Web Services, in a blog post.
