Future support for High-CPU Extra Large Instance

[Shawn Johnson]

Do you have any plans for adding support for the Amazon EC2 - High-CPU Extra Large Instance? I'd just be interested because it could potentially cut our build time down significantly with the additional CPU's and Memory.

With Bamboo, OnDemand High-CPU Extra Large instance, although selectable, is supported only with a custom 64bit EC2 image, so you cannot just choose it and use it.

Standard image compatible with that instance type will be made available once OnDemand upgrades to 4.0. No release date is known yet, we are currently working on it.

Thanks Przemek - that's what I wanted to know.

Actually, you can already configure this for your Bamboo OnDemand. In the Bamboo administration area, go to Elastic Bamboo >> Image Configurations.

You can then create a new image configuration and choose your preferred instance type.
