Open lielran opened 3 years ago

lielran commented 3 years ago

really like the idea of on-demand runners. spot support will make it more appealing :)

@lielran Thank you for the feedback and the idea contribution - very appreciate it!

The idea of using spot instances is interesting. I will definitely take a look into it.

also, be aware that in order to communicate back to github the ec2 needs internet access via public IP or internet gateway

@lielran, you're right! Thank you for the note. I will add this to the documentation.

Any update on this? This is one awesome cost saving enhancement.

I'm looking for spot instances too - any plans on implementing this (and timelines?)

I see that EC2 launch templates has a open PR too
