## Configuring a Runner
In GitLab, Runners run the builds that you define in
`.gitlab-ci.yml`
.
A Runner can be a virtual machine, a VPS, a bare-metal machine, a docker
container or even a cluster of containers. GitLab and the Runners communicate
through an API, so the only needed requirement is that the machine on which the
Runner is configured to have Internet access.
