I'm a CodeCommit customer. I'm ok with deprecation, but I don't understand why they didn't give us users a year to migrate like with QLDB.

  It was nice to have everything managed internally by AWS. Because of corporate bureaucracy, it is a lot easier to have complete control over a CodeCommit repository as an admin to AWS accounts than get what I needed it with Githin

  They aren’t turning it off to existing customers though. So you have plenty of time to migrate.

    Yeah hut I have clients that don't have a AWS account yet and I planned on launching one soon and now I need to launch with a new untested git setup. I need to learn about other providers security ASAP to provide the same experience. I see no reason to just stop it completely right after the announcement. This all leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

RIP S3 Select, you granted me wizard status in the eyes of many bumbling engineering teams.

  I guess Athena can do the same thing?

    Yeah my immediate assumption was that it's a move to push to the Glue/Athena paradigm. S3 Select was so great in a pinch though.

    It can. But S3 Select was so simple in a pinch

From previous threads, it seems like it's been a running joke inside of AWS that SimpleDB hadn't already been 86'd.

We put everything on CodeCommit here! While there's no rush to migrate, I guess we should do it soon. I don't think the issue was lack of use, or difficulty to support. It probably just lost money.

There was no advanced notice and people only found out about it after trying to create new repositories or environments (Cloud9) in a new organization. Even on Twitter, Jeff Bar was cryptic On the other hand, they just added support to view images inline in the console for markdown files in CodeCommit last year. This must have been a sudden decision. Last year when I was still working at AWS, there was talk about fully integrating VSCode third party plug in support.
