Description
Amazon EC2 Spot Instances allow users to leverage unused capacity within the AWS cloud, providing significant savings of up to 90% compared to standard On-Demand pricing. These instances can be utilized for a wide range of applications that are stateless, fault-tolerant, or adaptable, including big data processing, containerized applications, continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), web hosting, high-performance computing (HPC), and development and testing environments. Their seamless integration with various AWS services—such as Auto Scaling, EMR, ECS, CloudFormation, Data Pipeline, and AWS Batch—enables you to effectively launch and manage applications powered by Spot Instances. Additionally, combining Spot Instances with On-Demand, Reserved Instances (RIs), and Savings Plans allows for enhanced cost efficiency and performance optimization. Given AWS's vast operational capacity, Spot Instances can provide substantial scalability and cost benefits for running large-scale workloads. This flexibility and potential for savings make Spot Instances an attractive choice for businesses looking to optimize their cloud spending.
Description
For those utilizing GitHub Actions in their CI/CD processes and concerned about the security of their pipelines, the StepSecurity platform offers a robust solution. It allows for the implementation of network egress controls and enhances the security of CI/CD infrastructures specifically for GitHub Actions runners. By identifying potential CI/CD risks and detecting misconfigurations in GitHub Actions, users can safeguard their workflows. Additionally, the platform enables the standardization of CI/CD pipeline as code files through automated pull requests, streamlining the process. StepSecurity also provides runtime security measures to mitigate threats such as the SolarWinds and Codecov attacks by effectively blocking egress traffic using an allowlist approach. Users receive immediate, contextual insights into network and file events for all workflow executions, enabling better monitoring and response. The capability to control network egress traffic is refined through granular job-level and default cluster-wide policies, enhancing overall security. It is important to note that many GitHub Actions may lack proper maintenance, posing significant risks. While enterprises often opt to fork these Actions, the ongoing upkeep can be costly. By delegating the responsibilities of reviewing, forking, and maintaining these Actions to StepSecurity, businesses can achieve considerable reductions in risk while also saving valuable time and resources. This partnership not only enhances security but also allows teams to focus on innovation rather than on managing outdated tools.
