AWS CodeCommit is a source control service by Amazon that enables members of a team to collaborate on a highly scalable and ultimately secure platform. Generally, the AWS CodeCommit acts as a source code storage or repository for Amazon Web Services public cloud customers.
With the Amazon CodeCommit, a developer can create a Git-based repository, import and host codes. You can create a repository with AWS CodeCommit through AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), CodeCommit APIs, or with the AWS Software Development Kit (SDK). These repositories can be as small or as big as you would like as a consumer. A developer can actually store whatever type of file up to 2 GB in AWS CodeCommit.
The data for AWS CodeCommit keep in Amazon easy Storage Service and Amazon DynamoDB. A bit like within the Amazon net services easy Notification Service (SNS), AWS CodeCommit ensures all the code stored in it is safe by automatically encrypting it through AWS Key Management Service and in some cases, integrating CodeCommit with AWS Identity and Access Management.
