It just works, faster CI at half the cost
Settiing up Depot was the most effective initiative in 2024 and it was only a week of effort, including writing the business case and presenting to the VP. It was really easy to convince management and after a few months of usage we observed 60% cost redution
Depot prioritized solving this issue, and within a week they deployed a new implementation that stabilized queue times to an acceptable range
Depot runners are hosted in AWS which allow me to rely on implementation assumptions.
For example:
When we use Github Ondemand runners, we had to also use Github Container Registry (ghcr.io), using an alternative like AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) would cost extra on data transfer, but with Depot Runners we can safely use any AWS service without cost penalties
3x the speed for half the cost - Its a no brainer
Very few products just work the way Depot just works. Its stable, dependable, and basically a NOOP to implement. Every single time we've needed assistance the Depot team has been dilligent to jump in to help, and solve our problems. We moved quickly to replace all of our workflows in github actions with these runners, and developers used depot cross container builds every day.
Rocket Fuel for Developers
- Super easy to get going. We just had to change a couple of lines in our github actions workflow file to start building Docker images using Depot.
- The team deeply understands the technology and problem space. I feel like I'm buying a service that will only improve and mature further.
