The Jenkins server under someone's desk is a classic legacy system: plugins nobody updates, credentials in global config, builds only one person can fix. GitHub Actions Importer audits Jenkins, forecasts Actions usage and converts pipelines. What converts cleanly, what does not, and how to handle AWS credentials on the other side.
GitHub Actions Importer, distributed as a GitHub CLI extension and a container, plans and automates migrations from Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Bamboo, Bitbucket Pipelines, CircleCI, GitLab and Travis CI. Its three commands map onto a sensible migration.

Plugins without an equivalent action. The audit report lists them; most have a marketplace action or a short script replacement.
Shared libraries in Groovy. Rewrite as reusable workflows or composite actions.
Credentials. Do not copy Jenkins credentials into GitHub secrets one for one. For AWS, replace access keys with OIDC federation to IAM roles scoped per repository and environment.
Agents with special tools or network access. Use larger hosted runners, CodeBuild-managed runners inside your VPC, or ephemeral self-hosted runners.
Once a month: what changed in tech that month and what it means for you, from cloud and AI to security and the tools you build with. Every item links to its source. No sales pitch, unsubscribe in one click.

From docker-compose on a VM (or Docker Swarm) to ECS: A Small-Team Migration
Many products still run as a docker-compose file on one server, or a small Swarm cluster. It works until the server needs patching, the disk fills or traffic doubles. How the pieces of a compose file map to ECS, where state should go, and how ECS Express Mode and ECS Gateway make the move small.
