Google Cloud region

Self-hosted GitHub Actions runners in GCP europe-west1 (Belgium)

EU-resident GCP region with broad GPU SKU coverage. Cirun spins Google Cloud VMs in GCP europe-west1 (Belgium) on demand for each workflow and tears them down when the job completes — compute stays in BE.

Why this fits

  • EU-resident GCP region with broad GPU SKU coverage.
  • Google Cloud GCP europe-west1 (Belgium) keeps your CI compute in BE for the duration of the job — useful for GDPR, RBI, HIPAA-adjacent and other data-residency rules.
  • Audit-friendly — every job logs the region it ran in; data leaving the region requires an explicit step in your workflow.
