About BuildJet
Building on top of a GitHub Actions, BuildJet offers incredibly high-performing, secure and cost-effective runners over the existing GitHub Actions runners.
BuildJet is both secure and incredibly fast. Unlike GitHub Actions, which use old and cheap Azure hardware that barley go above 3 GHz, BuildJet uses its custom bare-metal infrastructure with a custom VM Hypervisor management solution, built specifically for the CI use case.
Better hardware, and our custom software, means incredibly faster builds. On average, your CI Workflows will be 2x faster than GitHub Action's built-in runner, when using BuildJet for GitHub Actions.
After installing BuildJet
In order for BuildJet for GitHub Actions to be used by your workflow job, we need to specify a runner tag in the jobs.[job-name].runs-on property.
We recommend starting with the 4 vCPU runner, as this has the same cost as the GitHub runner and is a good baseline for comparison.
