Osquery uses basic SQL commands to leverage a relational data-model to describe a device.

Yes definitely! In fact this wasn't me trying to steer you off GA, I was mainly thinking of the features the CI itself was giving and if there's anything specific we have to emulate or find a substitute for :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s so much smoother for all the work you did on Azure. The translation is pretty mechanical.

Nice! yeah first thing is hardware really, like disk space

Hardware is similar. A bit more disk space. Lemme find the specs

we are already quite limited and if it's less we would need to land some restructuring work in the code first.

Windows runs on `Dv2 and DSv2-series`, and nominally:
```2-core CPU
7 GB of RAM memory
14 GB of SSD disk space```

The bit I’m more worried about is that we only get catalina machines

hum seems about the same as Azure Pipelines, actually I believe they are the same

<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/dv2-dsv2-series#dsv2-series>

Interesting. Didn’t you say that the azure ones had dropped to 10gig disk?

```GitHub hosts Linux and Windows runners on Standard_DS2_v2 virtual machines in Microsoft Azure with the GitHub Actions runner application installed. The GitHub-hosted runner application is a fork of the Azure Pipelines Agent. ```

So I think the 14GB is the disk size without installation

if you look at the microsoft doc it says max 8 GB data

then there was a separate document where threy say they try to give at least 10 GB of free space

what changed in pratice is that they were actually giving more space than that as free space
