AWS Transform custom announces general availability of automated codebase analysis
AWS Transform custom announces the general availability of the comprehensive codebase analysis transformation. This up-front analysis reduces documentation maintenance burden and preserves critical institutional knowledge. This enables you to better understand the current state of your codebase before starting a modernization effort, reducing the time and guesswork involved in planning large-scale upgrades. It 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.
The transformation analyzes codebases in any language, including Python, Java (Maven and Gradle), Node.js, .NET, and applications exceeding one million lines of code. It produces a technical debt report that identifies outdated components and end-of-life dependencies, and recommends specific AWS-managed transformations to address them — helping you prioritize modernization efforts based on actual codebase conditions rather than manual assessment.
To get started, install the AWS Transform CLI and run atx custom def exec -n AWS/comprehensive-codebase-analysis -p. To run codebase analysis across multiple repositories at organizational scale, see Building a scalable code modernization solution with AWS Transform custom.

AWS Transform custom is available in US East (N. Virginia) and Europe (Frankfurt ).
