Creating pipelines in AWS involves knowing how to use a series of CodePipeline action types for integration with products and services. In this course, you'll recognize the various action type integrations that facilitate AWS CodePipeline configuration. You'll identify the pipeline and stage structure requirements in AWS and list the test action integrations that can be included in pipelines and the deploy action integrations that can be used to deploy diversified applications. You'll then recognize the AWS services that can be used to configure approvals and invoke action integrations in CodePipeline and the prominent AWS service integrations not based on CodePipeline action types.
Additionally, you'll create IAM users and configure IAM managed policies. You'll create two-stage pipelines and configure AWS CodeDeploy. You'll configure CodePipeline and CodeBuild to build pipelines and stages of pipelines. Finally, you'll use Step Functions invoke actions and create Lambda functions to be added as actions.
DevOps Pipelines: Using Action Type Integrations to Configure AWS Pipelines
discover the key concepts covered in this course
recall the DevOps stages that need to be configured to create pipelines that deploy or test applications after they've been built and tested for every committed change
create IAM users and assign CodePipeline permissions to them by configuring IAM managed policies
create two-stage pipelines and configure CodeDeploy to deploy applications from CodeCommit repositories to Amazon EC2 instances
list the various integration action types that can facilitate CodePipeline configuration and allow integration with the products and services in use
describe the pipeline and stage structure requirements in AWS that can help implement the DevOps continuous integration and continuous deployment paradigm
configure CodePipeline to use a versioned Amazon S3 bucket as the source stage for code and create a pipeline that uses the bucket as part of a source action integration in a stage
configure CodeBuild as a build action to the build stage of a pipeline and configure CodePipeline to use CloudBees to build and test code in one or more actions in the pipeline
list the test action integrations that can be included in a pipeline as a build action to help implement a robust testing service
list the deploy action integrations that can be used to deploy diversified applications, and configure resources to enable platforms for deployment using AWS CodePipeline
describe the AWS services that can be used to configure approval and invoke action integrations in AWS CodePipeline
configure CodePipeline to use a Step Functions invoke action in order to trigger state machine executions
create Lambda functions to be added as actions in a stage when creating pipelines using the create pipeline wizard
recall the AWS service integrations that are not based on CodePipeline action types but play an important role in managing non-functional aspects of CodePipeline
