Ubicloud

We've been using Ubicloud builders for our Rust project [0] for several months, and it's worked very well. We've seen CI times go from 10-15 minutes to 6-7, and our bill has gone…

We've been running Ubicloud for a while at Resmo. It is indeed 10x cheaper. We upped our instance sizes by 2x for a slightly more performance but it's still 5x cheaper. The main…

We've been using the Ubicloud runner for a while at PeerDB[1]. Great value and specially the ARM runners have been helpful to get our CI costs down. The team is really responsive…

In this case, I don't think the issue is due to filesystem performance. Someone from Ubicloud can correct me, but my understanding is that for custom runners Github still stores…

didn't see any mention of caching in the docs. This tends to be pretty important for fast build/CI at many different key points of a given workflow (dependency cache, build…

Hi, I work for Ubicloud. Yes, that is correct. We are also working on implementing our own caching, which should speed up cache downloads/uploads significantly.

Our biggest GHA fees come from running on MacOS. Do you offer MacOS as a managed service (or plan to?) and how much cheaper is that than GitHub?

Not for the foreseeable future. Ubicloud runs on bare metal providers and they don't lease Mac hardware. Technically, we could run MacOS VMs on arm64. However, our interpretation…

Nice intro, but I am a bit worried not seeing SOC2 or something similar.

SOC2 ?

I was looking for macOS M1 runner, which is not provided by GitHub. I'm willing to pay for that, but it seems that there are only Linux types now.

This looks great and the pricing is obviously a big improvement, I will try it out for our Linux jobs. Sure would be good to see competition for the MacOS and Windows runners…

Hi there, I'm Ozgun, one of Ubicloud's founders. We have dozens of customers using Ubicloud runners in production today. We’re now designing our caching layer (Docker instance…

> wipe out the block storage device attached to the VM Does this provide guarantee that subsequent job won't be able to recover the data?

Where is your company incorporated? (e.g do you comply with the GDPR?). This should be stated on the website.

Looks like it's a long running node? Or am I wrong? Does it have on demand workers like those Kubernetes providers, where you use shared master nodes (or with a very small fee),…

We've been happily using BuildJet [0] for over a year now. Saved over $25k in CI costs compared to GH Actions - they're also using super powerful bare metal servers with Hetzner…

How does this compare to BuildJet?

We support GitHub MacOS 13 runners on M2 Pros at WarpBuild [1]. They're about 25% faster and 50% cheaper per minute compared to the equivalent GitHub hosted runners. [1]…

I love to see examples in the wild of repos having switched to a non-official GitHub Action runner. I'm slowly preparing a collection of repo timings comparing GitHub vs…

Thanks for sharing, looks cool! The one I have been using on all of my projects is https://cirun.io they support all cloud providers and have been around for almost as long as…

Looks neat. I've been using https://github.com/philips-labs/terraform-aws-github-runner to save on $
