AWS Certified Developer Associate DVA-C02 Practice Question

Incorporating an approval action within the deployment pipeline of the cloud provider's service allows for the necessary pause in the automated process, pending a manual review and go-ahead from an authorized team member or stakeholder. This feature serves as a check ensuring that only verified code is promoted to more critical environments, such as production.

The options pertaining to specific project configurations in the build service or employing a serverless function do not correctly address the requirement of pausing the pipeline for manual intervention. While these tools and features have their own use cases, they do not align with the context of adding a manual review stage within a deployment pipeline. Similarly, introducing version control requirements on the environment itself is a separate concern and does not halt the automated process at the desired stage within the pipeline for manual review.
