Anka virtualization on AWS EC2 Mac

  • Anka runs as a Type 2 hypervisor on top of each EC2 Mac instance (Intel and Apple Silicon / Arm)
  • Near-native performance inside Anka macOS VMs on EC2 Mac
  • Run multiple Anka macOS VMs on a single EC2 Mac instance
  • CLI and Packer support to create Anka macOS VM images for AWS

Ephemeral macOS VMs for iOS CI on EC2 Mac

  • Directly provision ephemeral macOS VM agent/runner/workers on EC2 mac cluster from your CI
  • Orchestrate creation and deletion of ephemeral macOS VMs for iOS CI. Run orchestrator in your K8 setup on AWS.
  • Integrate directly with Jenkins, TeamCity, GitLab CI, BuildKite, GitHub Actions, Concourse, Azure DevOps, Bamboo CI.
  • Scale VMs on demand on EC2 mac instances with no start time delay.

Manage iOS CI on EC2 Mac as infrastructure-as-code

  • Abstract the build and test software dependencies from the EC2 mac instance and manage as a code
  • Use your existing packer or Ansible automation for macOS image creation
  • Run multiple macOS system VMs on a single EC2 mac instance
  • Setup central macOS VM private image registry on EC2, Kubernetes, or Docker setups to manage versions/tags

Cut AWS EC2 Mac costs with denser macOS VM packing

  • Run multiple virtualized build environments concurrently on each EC2 Mac instance
  • Orchestrate workers/agents/runners directly from your CI on an EC2 Mac cluster
  • Run different macOS versions and dependency stacks side by side on the same EC2 Mac
  • Instantly provision and scale macOS VMs on a static EC2 Mac cluster
