Which service helps you securely host code repositories in AWS and supports private access by default?

• A. AWS CodeArtifact
• B. AWS CodeCommit
• C. AWS X-Ray
• D. AWS Cloud9

Answer: (B)

Securely hosting code repositories with private access by default is provided by a fully managed Git-based code hosting service in AWS. This service stores your Git repositories and uses IAM for authentication and authorization, making repositories private by default so only authorized users and roles can access them. It also offers encryption at rest and in transit and integrates smoothly with other AWS developer tools, so you don’t have to manage your own git server. The other services mentioned serve different purposes: a package repository for software libraries, a tracing tool for distributed applications, and a cloud-based integrated development environment, none of which are designed primarily to host private code repositories with IAM-driven access controls.
