Explore the technical challenges and solutions for scaling GitHub Actions across hundreds of open source projects in this 41-minute conference talk from the Linux Foundation. Discover how the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) manages over 230 open source projects under a single GitHub Enterprise account and the unique scaling challenges this creates for CI/CD workflows. Learn about the governance complexities that arise when centralizing project management at foundation scale and understand why GitHub Actions weren't originally designed for this type of organizational structure. Examine the CNCF's strategic approach to overcoming these limitations, including detailed insights into self-hosted GitHub Action Runners implementation. Compare different hosting strategies for self-hosted runners and gain deep technical knowledge about managing scale-to-zero runner fleets. Understand the operational considerations, cost implications, and performance benefits of running your own GitHub Actions infrastructure at enterprise scale.
