AWS Transform custom announces general availability of automated codebase analysis

AWS Transform Custom Release

AWS Transform custom has announced the general availability of a comprehensive codebase analysis transformation. This feature reduces documentation maintenance and preserves institutional knowledge, helping you understand your codebase before starting a modernization effort.

The transformation performs deep static analysis and generates structured documentation covering architecture, technical debt, code metrics, reference documentation, migration planning, and diagrams. Behavior analysis is available in early access.

It supports codebases in Python, Java (Maven and Gradle), Node.js, .NET, and applications with over one million lines of code. It produces a technical debt report identifying outdated components and end-of-life dependencies, recommending AWS-managed transformations to address them.

What to do

• Install the AWS Transform CLI
• Run atx custom def exec -n AWS/comprehensive-codebase-analysis -p
• For organizational scale, see Building a scalable code modernization solution with AWS Transform custom
