I went ahead and gave converting most of the jobs to actions a shot. I basically gave it to Claude and had it painstakingly run each one in act locally, to make sure it worked to an extent. It still needs some work though. The WIP is up here (in imaxon/gha, which i made my default branch to test): https://github.com/parshimers/incubator-asterixdb/actions One challenge is that we will need to rebalance some of the tests between profiles. Some of the jobs take an obnoxious amount of time on the GH runners. I proposed a change that came out of this, it seems like the GCS suite runs all the tests instead of a sample like the other CloudSqlppExecutionTest suites: https://asterix-gerrit.ics.uci.edu/c/asterixdb/+/22001
I will keep messing with this until I can at least get all the actions to pass. Then, maybe we can come up with a concrete plan to swap over, and have a vote on it.
