Bazel + Buildfarm

If you are a Bazel build system user but are not using remote execution you may be missing out. And if you want to dip your toes into the world of remote execution (and fast build times), you should give Buildfarm a go.

Buildfarm is an open sourced project and has been growing in popularity and I am proud to be one of the contributors and maintainers for it.

If you want to learn more and play around with it head over to bazel-Buildfarm on Github and give it a try.

Below are some resources to get you started.

If you want to do a quick playground setup locally, or deploy to AWS you can use bfmgr to simplify your setup.

If you’d like to find our more about what Buildfarm is and its benefits, you can watch my talk during 2021 Build Meetup conference here.
