AWS Runners allow you to deploy Ona’s runner infrastructure directly within your own AWS VPC, giving you complete control over your development environments while maintaining security and compliance requirements. When you deploy an AWS Runner, development environments are created as EC2 instances that are automatically sized based on your environment class requirements. The runner orchestrator itself runs as an ECS service within a dedicated ECS cluster in your AWS account. The entire deployment is automated through CloudFormation templates that we provide, making setup straightforward while ensuring best practices for security and scalability.
