There are dozens of CI/CD offerings and many are better designed than Github actions, including Gitlab's CI runners.
I don't see what paying Github would do for AWS or GCP. They both have their own code repos, build pipelines, container registries, and more. Even Azure has its own DevOps product.
- jjeaff 7y agoI use Gitlab's CI runners and I agree. However, I am pretty excited about the direction that Github is going with their actions. Having a directory of user created actions and integrations seems like gold to me and I hope Gitlab starts leaning that way soon.
- hn_throwaway_99 7y agoI agree, but GitHub must fix the security nightmare that is waiting to happen with GitHub actions marketplace. Seems like this would be such an easy fix, too.
- pknopf 7y agoOrganizations can enforce that their repos use only actions that are within the repo, making the build more secure, controlled and auditable.
- chairmanwow1 7y agoIt's all about the ease of use. Manually setting up CI/CD is _hard_ and requires a team to maintain and support it. Whether through a home-rolled Jenkins deployment or Buildkite.
