About:
bazel-remote is a remote caching server for Bazel that stores build artifacts and action outputs. It accelerates builds by allowing developers and CI systems to fetch previously computed results instead of re-executing tasks. This significantly reduces build times and ensures consistent results across different environments.

Key Features:

HTTP/JSON API for easy integration
Storage backends: disk, S3, GCS, Azure
LRU eviction and CAS deduplication
Prometheus metrics and basic auth
Action cache and Content Addressable Storage

Use Cases:

Shared build cache for CI/CD pipelines
Accelerating local development builds
Distributed team build acceleration

Alternatives:

Buildbarn – Full remote execution platform with scheduler and workers, more complex than bazel-remote which focuses on caching only
Bazel Build Cache (experimental) – Native HTTP cache, less feature-rich and lacks advanced storage backends and metrics
