What's Is Aws Codebuild

AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed continuous integration service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces software packages that are ready to deploy. With CodeBuild, you don’t need to provision, manage, and scale your own build servers.

Is AWS CodeBuild the same as Jenkins?

Jenkins is by far the more complex of the 2 options to setup and maintain. AWS CodeBuild provisions all the infrastructure for you, so there are no servers to look after. In terms of bootstrapping your pipelines, AWS CodeBuild wins here too since you can define your build project and buildspec in CloudFormation.
