Tractus-X: Provide Resource Packs for Github Action Runners
Dear EF-Team.
The Eclipse Foundation provides Resource Packs based on agent types and also as dedicated agents (see https://wiki.eclipse.org/CBI#Additional_Resource_Packs).
We are using github.com and have all our build infrastructure running on Github Actions. They are versatile and easy to use. They also have the perfect feature set for doing holistic e2e testing due to them running on VMs (in contrast to having a pod on kubernetes). Github also warns when running your own Github Action Runner due to potential security implications.
We would like to be able to purchaes Github Action Runner resource packs.
Additional details:
- Github supports a billing person
- You can configure spending alerts
- Spending limit can be configured (https://docs.github.com/en/billing/managing-billing-for-github-packages/managing-your-spending-limit-for-github-packages#about-spending-limits-for-github-packages)
- Larger Github Action runners can't be used with "Free" minute contingent of 2000 min and do need payed minutes
