Notes:

  • Pricing for instances is chosen within the European zone.
  • CPU is exclusively used as a comparative metric.
  • Instances of Public Cloud Provider are systematically chosen with higher specifications in other criteria (RAM, Disk) than cloud-runner.
  • If necessary, the Euro to USD conversion is done at an exchange rate of 1 euro = 1.07 USD.

What is a Spot Instance?

A spot instance is a type of cloud computing service offered by some providers, where unused computing capacity is sold at reduced rates compared to standard instances. However, spot instances can be interrupted and reclaimed by the provider with short notice if the capacity is needed elsewhere.

Despite the potential cost savings promised by spot instances, the comparison indicates that even in these reduced-rate scenarios, self-hosted gitlab runners running using cloud providers' offerings remain expensive when contrasted with the pricing structure of Cloud-Runner.
