Of all the undifferentiated heavy lifting you can offload to your cloud provider, CI makes a lot of sense: - You probably want to store artifacts in its object store anyway. - Rent exactly the right amount of compute for the concurrent builds running in any given minute. - If your projects have sufficiently simple build-and-test entrypoints i.e. "make" then you're highly portable and not too worried about lock-in. You don't even need to be deploying to the cloud provider you're building on.
