I am spearheading an effort to release a CloudFormation template that will launch Jenkins clusters into your AWS account. It represents everything learned while working with Jenkins for over 6 years including 2.5 years of Jenkins at Lyft and 1 year at DoorDash. If you would like to collaborate, please contact block.jon@gmail.com. The project was written with an eye towards making the launching of a Jenkins cluster very very easy. It's designed with Docker workloads in mind. Some of the gems include autoscaling, instrumentation & metrics, automatic Let's Encrypt certificate registration, GitHub webhook integration and retries during pipeline slave disconnects which makes spot instances viable even when they abruptly go away... something that saves you 75%!! on your AWS instance costs.
