agent
A Bamboo agent is a service that can run job builds. There are the following types of Bamboo agents:
- Remote agents run on computers other than the Bamboo server, that run the remote agent tool
- Elastic agents run in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
- Ephemeral agents are a short-lived remote agents that start on-demand inside a Kubernetes cluster to carry out a single build or deployment before being shut down.
Each remote agent runs in its own process (that is, has its own JVM) and has a defined set of capabilities. The latter means that an agent can only run builds for jobs whose requirements match the agent's capabilities.
