We're investigating the possibilities of cloud-based building with Jenkins as our local hardware gets overwhelmed. Among which is Amazon's EC2. I am asking it here because maybe somebody is already doing this. The aim would be to move the system management to the provider while keeping the possibility of scaling anytime to larger configurations.
We're - unfortunately - not an open source company. Hence the potential confidentiality issues: 1. Making the source repository reachable through the internet. 2. The source code transits to an uncontrolled external site. Are there safe solutions to these concerns on EC2 ? Or any other provider for that matter... TIA ! Jan
