Hey everyone. Matthew Sanabria here from Oxide Computer Company. A common question we get asked is,
Is Oxide a good platform for running your CI/CD runners?
And yeah, it is. Oxide’s control plane API allows you to dynamically provision infrastructure to run your CI/CD workflows.
So how exactly does CI/CD work? Well, you have a CI/CD platform that triggers a workflow and that spins up a job which runs on a runner. And usually that runner is a virtual machine. And those can either be static, where they’re always running, or ephemeral, where they run on demand. And Oxide provides mechanisms to run both of those on its dynamic compute platform.
So if you’re running your CI/CD workloads in the public cloud today, and you’re looking to move that on-prem, while maintaining that flexibility and elasticity, consider Oxide.
