Ask HN: CI/CD on AWS lambda like thing

So, I envision a flow similar to using AWS S3 like service for a repository, where we are billed based on storage/bandwidth/requests.

Then we'll have a lambda-like service which automatically pulls stuff from a repo, runs tests in the cloud. We set a concurrency limit and service works as is.

Is there any company which offers similar flow? I've googled but found Jenkins and stuff like that which are big apps and not smth simple.

The same answer applies here as with your other question: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16357653 but with some additions, you can use AWS lambda for that with some hacks or set up your own service, just spin up a docker image and run what you need doing in that (its what you do with pipelines either way). You can use githooks if you want functions to be executed at some self-hosted repository once someone pushes.

This works if and only if each test or test segment is guaranteed to return within 300 seconds. For a lot of workflows, that's not doable.
