AWS CodeBuild adds support for specifying EC2 instance type and configurable storage size

AWS CodeBuild now supports selecting an EC2 instance by name when using reserved capacity fleets. This enhancement also allows you to configure the amount of storage attached to each instance. AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed continuous integration service that compiles source code, runs tests, and produces ready-to-deploy software packages.

You can select a compute type that is most suitable for your workload. Customize your build environment to match specific resource needs - whether that's more CPU, memory, storage, faster network speed, or GPU support. This allows you to optimize cost and feedback cycle, resulting in improved developer productivity.

The feature is now available in US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), South America (Sao Paulo), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Europe (Ireland), and Europe (Frankfurt) where reserved capacity fleets are supported.
