I have a job that makes use of Tesseract for OCR.
Tesseract runs *a lot* faster on GPU-optimized computers.
So I was thinking of running this job on an AWS EC2 instance of type P or
G, which have NVIDIA Tesla GPUs.
However, these instance types are quite expensive, and the job runs only
about 10 times per day, for an estimated duration of ~10 minutes.
So it would be very costly to have an AWS EC2 instance online 24/7.
Is there a way in Jenkins, maybe by means of some plugin, that I can for
example put in my Jenkinsfile:
agent { label 'tesseract' }
and that when a job with label 'tesseracr' enters the queue, Jenkins
connects to AWS, starts an instance based off an already existing image,
runs the job on that image, and then terminates the instance?
