AWS CodeDeploy vs Google Cloud Deploy

AWS CodeDeploy automates application releases across development, test, and production environments. It deploys to Amazon EC2, AWS Fargate, AWS Lambda, and on-premises instances using in-place, canary, or blue/green methods. Rolling updates and deployment health tracking help limit disruption; when too many updates fail, CodeDeploy can stop a deployment and restore a previous revision. Teams can launch and monitor releases through the AWS Management Console, CLI, SDKs, or APIs. AWS CodePipeline and some AWS partners offer prebuilt CI/CD connections. For EC2, CodeDeploy works with Auto Scaling and can update an instance before it joins an Elastic Load Balancing load balancer. Amazon SNS can send deployment-event notifications by SMS or email. The service uses a file- and command-based installation model with an AppSpec configuration file and is platform and language agnostic. EC2 deployments have no additional CodeDeploy charge; on-premises updates cost $0.02 per instance update, with no minimum fees or upfront commitments. On-premises instances must connect to public AWS service endpoints. The free plan is listed at free.

Google Cloud Deploy automates application delivery through an ordered set of target environments. It deploys to Google Kubernetes Engine, Cloud Run, GKE attached clusters, and custom targets, with releases promoted or rolled back through the web console, CLI, or API. Deployment options include canary and parallel rollouts, verification, deploy hooks, and automated promotion. IAM roles and conditions determine which authenticated users and service accounts can act. Cloud Audit Logs and Cloud Logging support audit trails and platform logs. Teams can invoke the service from CI through its CLI or API, including documented GitHub Actions and GitLab connections. Skaffold and Cloud Build render and deploy manifests, alongside artifact repositories and testing or workflow tools. The first active multiple-target pipeline each month costs nothing; each additional active multiple-target pipeline costs $5 a month per billing account. Underlying services may add charges. The regional system limit is 18,000 API requests per minute.
