10 Open Source Kubernetes Security Tools 2025
ForgeMT is an open-source, production-grade platform designed to solve the complexity of running GitHub Actions runners at scale. Instead of teams managing their own fragile and duplicated CI runner setups, ForgeMT centralizes orchestration into a single, multi-tenant system built for scalability, security, and cost efficiency.

The platform provisions ephemeral runners on both EC2 and Kubernetes (EKS) using Terraform and Terragrunt, ensuring workloads scale up instantly and tear down to zero when idle, reducing costs. It enforces strong tenant isolation with AWS IAM, OIDC integration, and network segmentation, giving each team a secure boundary without requiring separate infrastructure.

ForgeMT integrates seamlessly with GitHub via a GitHub App and webhook events, automatically spinning up the right type of runner when jobs start. It supports advanced autoscaling strategies with Karpenter, spot instance optimization, and observability through centralized logging and monitoring.

By removing operational overhead, ForgeMT helps organizations accelerate delivery, cut cloud costs, and meet security requirements — all while giving developers fast, ephemeral CI runners that just work.
