Hosted runners for GitLab Dedicated eliminates these challenges by providing a fully managed solution that handles all aspects of runner infrastructure. This allows your teams to focus on what matters most – building and deploying great software.\n## Key benefits\n### Reduced operational overhead\nBy choosing hosted runners, you can eliminate the complexity of provisioning, maintaining, and securing your runner infrastructure. Our fully managed service handles all aspects of runner operations, from deployment to updates and security patches.\n### Automatic scaling\nHosted runners automatically scale to match your CI/CD demands, ensuring consistent performance during high-traffic periods and for large-scale projects. This dynamic scaling capability means you'll always have runners available to pick up your CI/CD jobs and ensure optimal efficiency of your development teams.\n### Cost optimization\nWith hosted runners, you only pay for the resources you actually use. This consumption-based model eliminates the need to maintain excess capacity for peak loads, potentially reducing your infrastructure costs while ensuring resources are available when needed.\n### Enterprise-grade security\nFollowing the same security principles as GitLab Dedicated, hosted runners provide complete isolation from other tenants and are secure by default. Jobs are executed in fully-isolated VMs with no inbound traffic allowed. This means you can maintain the highest security standards without the complexity of implementing and maintaining security measures yourself.\n## Introducing native Arm64 support\nOur hosted runners now include native Arm64 support in addition to our existing x86-64 runners, offering significant advantages for modern development workflows.\n### Enhanced performance for Arm-based development\nNative Arm64 runners enable you to build, test, and deploy Arm-based applications in their native environment, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility. Teams developing Docker images or services targeting Arm-based cloud platforms can see build times cut significantly, accelerating their development cycles and deployments.\n### Cost-efficient computing\nArm-based runners can significantly reduce your computing costs, due to their efficient processing architecture and lower cost per minute. For compatible jobs, this means more affordable pipeline execution.\n### Native building capabilities\nWith support for both x86-64 and Arm64 architectures, you can:\n- build and test applications natively on either architecture\n- create multi-architecture container images efficiently\n- validate cross-platform compatibility in your CI/CD pipeline\n- optimize your delivery pipeline for specific target platforms\n- eliminate the performance overhead of emulation when building for Arm targets\nThis dual-architecture support ensures you have the flexibility to choose the right environment for each specific workload while maintaining a consistent and efficient CI/CD experience across all your projects.\n## Available runner sizes\nWe're expanding our runner offerings to include both x86-64 and Arm64 architectures with a range of configurations. The following sizes are available:\n| Size | vCPUs | Memory | Storage |\n|------|--------|---------|----------|\n| Small    | 2      | 8 GB    | 30 GB    |\n| Medium    | 4      | 16 GB   | 50 GB    |\n| Large    | 8      | 32 GB   | 100 GB   |\n| X-Large   | 16     | 64 GB   | 200 GB   |\n| 2X-Large  | 32     | 128 GB  | 200 GB   |\nThis expanded size support allows you to optimize your CI/CD pipeline performance based on your application's specific requirements.\n## What's next for hosted runners\nWe plan to release hosted runners in general availability in May 2025. The release includes compute minute visualization to help you better understand and control your CI/CD usage across your organization.\nWe'll be expanding our hosted runners offering with several new features coming later this year:\n- Network controls for enhanced security and compliance\n- MacOS runners to support application development for the Apple ecosystem\n- Windows runners for .NET and Windows-specific workloads\nThese additions will provide even more flexibility and coverage for your CI/CD needs, allowing you to consolidate all your build and test workflows on GitLab Dedicated hosted runners.\nReady to simplify your CI/CD infrastructure? Contact your GitLab representative or [reach out to our sales team](https://about.gitlab.com/dedicated/) to learn more about hosted runners for GitLab

GitLab metrics and registry features help reduce CI/CD bottlenecks","See how CI/CD Job Performance Metrics and Container Virtual Registry, currently in beta, help platform teams quickly spot slow jobs and simplify multi-registry container pulls.",[710],"Talia Armato-Helle","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1771438388/t6sts5qw4z8561gtlxiq.png","Platform and DevOps engineers spend too much time piecing together visibility across fragmented tools and managing infrastructure that should just work.\n\nTwo new GitLab features currently in beta tackle this from different angles but share the same goal: giving practitioners direct control over the CI/CD infrastructure they depend on, without adding another third-party tool. One surfaces job-level performance data right where you monitor pipelines. The other simplifies how you pull container images from multiple registries with built-in caching.\n\nBoth features are open for feedback now. Your input will help shape what ships next.\n\n## CI/CD Job Performance Metrics\n\n* **Available tiers:** GitLab Premium, GitLab Ultimate\n* **Status:** Limited-availability beta on GitLab.com; available on GitLab Self-Managed and GitLab Dedicated when ClickHouse is configured\n\nToday, there’s no simple way to see when a particular job’s duration starts increasing or which jobs are quietly dragging down your pipeline runtimes. Most teams either build custom dashboards or manually dig through logs to answer basic questions like:\n\n* Which jobs are slowest?  \n* Where are failure rates climbing?  \n* Which stage is the real bottleneck?\n\nCI/CD Job Performance Metrics changes that by adding a new job-focused panel to the CI/CD analytics page at the project level.\n\nFor each job in your pipelines, you can see:\n\n* Typical (P50, median) and worst‑case (P95) job duration, so you can quickly view normal versus slowest runs  \n* Failure rate, so you can spot fragile or flaky jobs  \n* Job name and stage, covering the last 30 days by default\n\nThe table is sortable, searchable by job name, and paginated, so platform teams get a single view to answer questions that previously required separate tools or custom reporting.\n\n**Try it now**\n\n* Navigate to your project and select **Analyze \\> CI/CD analytics**.  \n* Look for the CI/CD job performance metrics panel and sort by duration or failure rate to find your slowest or least reliable jobs.\n\n**Documentation**\n\n* [CI/CD analytics – CI/CD job performance metrics](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/analytics/ci_cd_analytics/#cicd-job-performance-metrics)\n\n**What’s coming next**\n\nWe’re working on stage-level grouping, so you can view aggregated metrics across your build, test, and deploy stages, and quickly understand where to focus optimization work.\n\n**Share your feedback:**\n\n* [CI/CD job performance metrics epic](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/work_items/18548)\n\n## Container Virtual Registry\n\n**Tier:** GitLab Premium, GitLab Ultimate\n**Status:** Beta, API-ready in 18.9\n\nMost organizations pulling container images into CI/CD pipelines rely on multiple registries: Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and internal registries, to name a few. Managing authentication, availability, and caching across all of them is operational overhead that slows pipelines down and introduces fragility.\n\nThe Container Virtual Registry lets you create a single GitLab endpoint that pulls from multiple upstream container sources with built-in caching.\n\nInstead of configuring credentials and availability for each registry individually in your pipeline configuration, you can:\n\n* Point your pipelines at one GitLab virtual registry endpoint  \n* Configure multiple upstream registries (Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and others using long-lived token authentication)  \n* Let GitLab resolve image pulls automatically, with pull-through caching to reduce bandwidth costs and improve reliability\n\nFor teams evaluating GitLab as a container registry replacement, this closes a critical capability gap. For teams already managing multi-registry container workflows, it centralizes image management into GitLab and cuts down on repeated pulls.\n\n**What the beta supports today**\n\n* Upstream registries using long-lived token authentication: Docker Hub, Harbor, Quay, and other compatible registries  \n* Pull-through caching so commonly used images are served from GitLab after the first pull  \n* API-first configuration, with UI management in progress++\n\nCloud provider registries requiring IAM authentication (such as Amazon Elastic Container Registry, Google Artifact Registry, and Azure Container Registry) are being considered for future iterations.\n\n**Test it today**\n\n* The Container Virtual Registry is API-ready in 18.9.  \n* SaaS (GitLab.com): Request access through your CSM or by commenting on the feedback issue below to have the feature flag enabled for your group.  \n* Self-managed: Enable the feature flag and configure the virtual registry using the API.\n\n**Documentation**\n\n* [Container Virtual Registry API](https://docs.gitlab.com/api/container_virtual_registries/)  \n* [Pull container images from the virtual registry](https://docs.gitlab.com/user/packages/virtual_registry/container/#pull-container-images-from-the-virtual-registry)\n\n\n Watch this walkthrough of the Container Virtual Registry Beta:\n   \n\n  \u003Ciframe src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/1167512082?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&badge=0&autopause=0&player_id=0&app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" title=\"20260223_Container Virtual Registry Beta_V1\">\u003C/iframe>\u003C\u003Cscript src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js\">\u003C/script>\n\n  \u003Cbr>\u003C/br>\n\n\n\n**Share your feedback:**\n\n* [Container virtual registry feedback issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/589630)\n\n## Help us build what matters\n\nEveryone in the GitLab community is a contributor. We built these betas based on community requests.\n\n* **CI/CD Job Performance Metrics** came from teams who had no easy way to see when build times started trending in the wrong direction, or which jobs were hurting pipeline reliability.  \n* **Container Virtual Registry** came from enterprise customers managing multiple registries and looking to reduce tool sprawl and bandwidth costs while evaluating GitLab as a central registry.\n\nYour feedback shapes what we create next. Try one or both of these betas, and share your experience in the linked feedback issues.\n\nThis is the first in a series of Core DevOps betas we plan to highlight. More are coming throughout the year, and we hope you’ll help us make them as useful as possible.\n","2026-02-25",[27,9,25],{"featured":31,"template":13,"slug":716},"new-gitlab-metrics-and-registry-features-help-reduce-ci-cd-bottlenecks",{"content":718,"config":725},{"title":719,"description":720,"heroImage":721,"date":713,"category":9,"tags":722},"GitLab Patch Release: 18.9.1, 18.8.5, 18.7.5","Learn more about this patch release for GitLab Community Edition and Enterprise Edition.","https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1749661926/Blog/Hero%20Images/security-patch-blog-image-r2-0506-700x400-fy25_2x.jpg",[723,724],"patch releases","security releases",{"featured":12,"template":13,"externalUrl":726},"https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2026/02/25/patch-release-gitlab-18-9-1-released/",{"content":728,"config":734},{"title":729,"description":730,"heroImage":711,"date":731,"tags":732,"category":9},"GitLab 18.9 released","Read about GitLab Duo Agent Platform self-hosted models now available for cloud licenses, vulnerability resolution with GitLab Duo Agent Platform, and more.","2026-02-19",[9,733],"releases",{"featured":12,"template":13,"externalUrl":735},"https://about.gitlab.com/releases/2026/02/19/gitlab-18-9-released/",{"promotions":737},[738,752,763],{"id":739,"categories":740,"header":742,"text":743,"button":744,"image":749},"ai-modernization",[741],"ai-ml","Is AI achieving its promise at scale?","Quiz will take 5 minutes or less",{"text":745,"config":746},"Get your AI maturity score",{"href":747,"dataGaName":748,"dataGaLocation":246},"/assessments/ai-modernization-assessment/","modernization assessment",{"config":750},{"src":751},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/qix0m7kwnd8x2fh1zq49.png",{"id":753,"categories":754,"header":755,"text":743,"button":756,"image":760},"devops-modernization",[9,39],"Are you just managing tools or shipping innovation?",{"text":757,"config":758},"Get your DevOps maturity score",{"href":759,"dataGaName":748,"dataGaLocation":246},"/assessments/devops-modernization-assessment/",{"config":761},{"src":762},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138785/eg818fmakweyuznttgid.png",{"id":764,"categories":765,"header":767,"text":743,"button":768,"image":772},"security-modernization",[766],"security","Are you trading speed for security?",{"text":769,"config":770},"Get your security maturity score",{"href":771,"dataGaName":748,"dataGaLocation":246},"/assessments/security-modernization-assessment/",{"config":773},{"src":774},"https://res.cloudinary.com/about-gitlab-com/image/upload/v1772138786/p4pbqd9nnjejg5ds6mdk.png",{"header":776,"blurb":777,"button":778,"secondaryButton":783},"Start building faster today","See what your team can do with the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps.\n",{"text":779,"config":780},"Get your free trial",{"href":781,"dataGaName":55,"dataGaLocation":782},"https://gitlab.com/-/trial_registrations/new?glm_content=default-saas-trial&glm_source=about.gitlab.com/","feature",{"text":498,"config":784},{"href":59,"dataGaName":60,"dataGaLocation":782},1772652072611]
