Postgres until now has been using cirrus-ci for CI. Unfortunately they&#39;re shutting down June 1st. They had been a good fit for us because: - some free credits so everyone could run some CI on their own - supported providing own compute for more demanding cases (via GCP and self hosted mac HW) - jobs ran in one-off VMs - support for custom images allowed us to pre-install everything, keeping test times manageable - VMs not containers was good for perf - CI job definitions could be run locally

@AndresFreundTec buildkite with selfhosted runners could be an option

@AndresFreundTec I would look at what curl is doing, and even ask @bagder

@AndresFreundTec I'm somebody who recently moved to self hosted in colocation... depending on the budget it's easy and "cheap compared to cloud services" (getting second hand servers isn't a huge deal) I live in Australia so the costs are 3-10X higher than the US/EU... but I'd imagine you could get a bunch of open source projects to go into building a CI Farm or just build it for yourself I assume you were getting a good deal before but right now, I advocate for moving off the cloud when the price is right.
