I made one more change: I increased the GitHub Actions Artifact retention period to 3 days for the intermediate build artifacts which are retained if a build job fails. The intermediate build artifacts are the Pulsar maven repository artifacts for the current build and the 2 different docker images used for integration and system tests. These consume about 2.5GB of disk space in total. It's possible to rerun individual failed jobs when the build artifacts are available. If the artifacts have already been expired, the complete workflow can be rerun by closing and reopening the PR or by rebasing the PR. The reason to minimize the retention period is cost. It costs $0.25 per GB for a total month of retention. The retention of 2.5GB for 3 days costs about 2.5 * $0.25 / 30 * 3= $0.0625 . That's 6 cents. I would assume that Apache has a certain amount of donated credits from GitHub to run GitHub Actions. For personal accounts, there is 500MB free monthly credit. This means that you can keep 500MB stored for a month. The storage cost is calculated hourly and it means that you could store 500MB*30 for 1 day if you wish. After the free credit is consumed, GitHub Actions will be disabled until the next billing period starts or the user purchases more credits. For GitHub Actions, the log file retention consumes the same storage quota. The usage of GitHub Actions Artifacts doesn't introduce anything new in that sense. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
