![]() ![]() ![]() Interactive remote development environments are also facilitated by code editors, such as VSCode, which provide a modern GUI based experience on the developer’s local machine while having source code files and terminal sessions for testing and debugging in the remote environment context. Therefore, handing out full instances to individual developers is not practical most often. This is particularly relevant for EC2 Mac instances, as they run on dedicated Mac mini hosts with a minimum tenancy of 24 hours. On top of that, this approach promotes cost efficiency, as it enables EC2 Mac instances to be shared and utilized by multiple developers concurrently. No need for specialized or powerful developer hardware.Consolidate access to source code and internal build tools, as they can be integrated with the remote development environment rather than local developer machines.Solve cross-platform issues by having separate environments for different target platforms, all of which are independent of the developer’s local setup.Light-weight process for rolling out consistent, up-to-date environments for every developer without having to install software locally.Several advantages exist when utilizing remote development environments over installations on local developer machines: Customers have been utilizing these instances in order to automate their build pipelines for the Apple platform and integrate their native build tools, such as Jenkins and GitLab.Īside from build automation, more and more customers are looking to utilize EC2 Mac instances for interactive development. Amazon EC2 Mac instances let developers build, test, and package their applications for every Apple platform, including macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS. In December 2020, we announced a macOS-based Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance. This post is written by: Michael Meidlinger, Solutions Architect ![]()
