GitLab Launches Isolated Hosted Runners for Dedicated

π‘Scale bursty AI CI workloads with isolated VMs without operating your own runner fleet.
β‘ 30-Second TL;DR
What Changed
Each CI job runs in a newly provisioned, isolated VM that is deleted after completion.
Why It Matters
Enterprise AI and software teams can scale agentic or high-volume CI workloads without building and maintaining their own runner fleet. The model may reduce platform-operations overhead and queue delays, while consumption pricing makes cost monitoring essential.
What To Do Next
Evaluate Hosted Runners for GitLab Dedicated in a representative AI CI project, measuring queue time, GitLab Credits consumption, and PrivateLink connectivity before migration.
Key Points
- β’Each CI job runs in a newly provisioned, isolated VM that is deleted after completion.
