Store and share artifacts across accounts, with appropriate levels of access granted to your teams and build systems. Reduce overhead from setup and maintenance of an artifact server or infrastructure with a fully managed service. Only pay for software packages stored, number of requests made, and data transferred out of Region with pay-as-you-go pricing. Configure CodeArtifact to fetch from public repositories such as the npm Registry, Maven Central, Python Package Index (PyPI), and NuGet. Securely share private packages across organizations by publishing them to a central organizational repository. Build automated approval workflows with CodeArtifact APIs and Amazon EventBridge, with visibility into your packages using AWS CloudTrail. Pull dependencies from CodeArtifact in AWS CodeBuild and publish new versions of your private packages secured with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).

RStudio IDE is a powerful integrated development environment built for data scientists using R and Python; it features a console, syntax-highlighting editor supporting direct code execution, plotting, history management, debugging tools, and workspace controls. The open source edition runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux desktops and includes code completion, smart indentation, Visual Markdown editing, project-based working directories, integrated support for multiple working directories, R help and documentation search, interactive debugging, and extensive tools for package development, all under the AGPL v3 license. While the open version provides core capabilities for coding and data exploration, commercial editions add enterprise-grade features like database/NoSQL connections, priority support, and commercial licensing options. RStudio IDE empowers users to analyze data, build visualizations, develop packages, and produce reproducible workflows in a trusted open-source environment.
