⚡️ Upcoming changes to Linux machines

[helinanever]

We are upgrading our Linux infrastructure. Starting from November 1, 2023, all Linux builds will be run on the new hardware.

The new Linux machines will have double the memory and vCPUs compared to the current minimum configuration. Additionally, we are going to increase the disk size and maximum egress bandwidth to support you even better in building and testing your projects. The new Linux build machine configuration will be as follows:

• 8 vCPUs
• 32GB RAM
• 150GB disk size (50GB extra)
• 16Gbps (upgrade from 10Gbps)

What actions are required?

No action is required from you to migrate to the new Linux hardware. Your Flutter Workflow Editor settings will be updated automatically. In codemagic.yaml, linux will work as an alias for linux_x2 which corresponds to the configuration listed above.

The OS and all the pre-installed software versions will remain unchanged. Therefore, no changes to your build configuration will be required to keep your workflows up and running.

You can already try the new machines before November 1 if you select the “Premium” Linux machine in Flutter Workflow Editor or specify linux_x2 in the codemagic.yaml file.

Will the changes affect how much I pay?

There will be no change in the price for teams on the fixed-price plan.

Users and teams on the Pay as you go plan already using the “Premium” Linux (linux_x2) machines will continue to pay the same price per minute while benefiting from a bigger disk size and faster network.

Users and teams on the Pay as you go plan using the “Standard” Linux (linux) machines will be billed $0.045/minute instead of $0.015/minute starting from November 1.

Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Continuously yours,
Team Codemagic
