At Ubicloud, we have ARM64 runners. They are compatible with Github Runners. It is just one line change in your workflow file. It is also 6x more cost effective than Github Runners (btw. our x64 runners are 10x more cost effective)

That seems promising, I only require arm runner currently. Ubicloud has GitHub Runners on AWS right?
Re:Ask HN: Any CI/CD SaaS Solutions for ARM? by pwmtr on Wednesday July 24, 2024 @05:47PM (#41062522)
Our runners are running on our own infrastructure. We get bare metal instances from providers like Hetzner or Leaseweb and virtualize them. Your runners run on the ephemeral VMs on those bare metal instances.

Is being on AWS a requirement for you? Is it because of caching? We also have our own runner cache. You can find more information from here https://www.ubicloud.com/docs/github-actions-integration/ubi...

Yeah, unfortunately there are only large runners avilable for arm64. I have medium to low workload for building. Additionally, they are only available on paid plans.

Check out what we're building at WarpBuild.

We provide fast compute for various architectures and OSes.

What stack have you built WarpBuild on? Is it Azure or AWS?
Re:Ask HN: Any CI/CD SaaS Solutions for ARM? by suryao on Monday July 22, 2024 @02:11PM (#41037611)
It's AWS mostly though we do have multi cloud presence that we're expanding in the next couple of months
Re:Ask HN: Any CI/CD SaaS Solutions for ARM? by vednig on Monday July 22, 2024 @02:16PM (#41037690)
Cause, I recently encountered problem with Azure's Network in Virginia and Arizona so I would prefer any other stack. Spent hours debugging only to be known that it's beyond my control. :)

We faced that as well and that's one of the reasons for the diversification across clouds
Re:Ask HN: Any CI/CD SaaS Solutions for ARM? by vednig on Monday July 22, 2024 @02:07PM (#41037534)
Yeah, checked you out too, yours seems like the only feasible alternative.

You could also be interested in https://runs-on.com.

Must be installed in your AWS account (1-click cloudformation template), and then you can use any instance type offered by AWS.

Sure, I will check it out.
