Feature Comparison

CI/CD Tools features side-by-side

Feature	AWS CodePipeline 5/18 features	Depot 12/18 features
Pipeline as code in the repository Pipelines are defined in a versioned config file that lives beside the source code, not in a UI.	No	Yes
Pipeline triggers on push and pull request Commits, tags and pull requests start a pipeline automatically without a manual click.	Yes	Yes
Parallel jobs and matrix builds Runs independent jobs at the same time and fans one job out across versions, platforms or shards.	No	Yes
Dependency caching between pipeline runs Restores dependency folders or Docker layers from a previous run so jobs skip re-downloading.	No	Yes
Self-hosted runners Teams can register their own machines or Kubernetes clusters as build agents alongside hosted ones.	Yes	No
Hosted macOS, Windows and Linux runners The vendor supplies build machines for all three operating systems, including Arm variants.	No	Yes
Scheduled pipelines A pipeline can run on a cron schedule rather than only in response to a code event.	Yes	Yes
Manual approval gates before deploy A pipeline stage can pause until a named person or group approves it in the UI.	Yes	No
Protected deployment environments Named environments restrict who may deploy to them and keep a history of every deployment.	No	No
Masked secrets for pipeline jobs Credentials are stored encrypted, masked in logs and injected only into the jobs that need them.	No	Yes
OIDC cloud credentials for jobs Jobs obtain short-lived cloud credentials through OpenID Connect instead of long-lived stored keys.	No	Yes
Reusable pipeline templates Common steps are packaged once and imported across many pipelines from a shared library or catalog.	No	Yes
Test reports with flaky test detection Parses test output to show failures per test and flags tests that pass and fail intermittently.	No	Yes
Artifact passing between jobs Files produced by one job can be uploaded and consumed by later jobs or downloaded after the run.	Yes	Yes
Pipeline duration and success analytics Dashboards show run times, failure rates and queue waits per pipeline over time.	No	Yes
Merge queue Merges are serialised so each change is tested against the latest default branch before it lands.	No	No
Free monthly build minutes A no-cost tier includes a monthly allowance of hosted build minutes for small teams.	No	No
Self-managed CI server edition The whole CI platform can be installed on the team's own infrastructure, not just the runners.	No	No
