Buildless: CDN for your Builds

Getting started with Buildless: the incredibly fast, universal, remote build cache CDN

Welcome! We're glad to have you here with us. If you're reading this, your builds are about to get very fast. Getting started with Buildless is easy; see the links below to get caching in only a few minutes.

🚀 Fast builds add up to great software

Buildless is the world's first global build cache. Are you a Java/Kotlin developer? A C++, Swift, C developer? Do you write JavaScript? Cool, we love you and we want to make your builds a painless experience.

The aim of Buildless is to avoid repeated compilations. If you've compiled code before, Buildless can store that compiled output and re-use it instead of running an expensive compile again.

Many build tools have support for this kind of thing now. Modern build tools understand the inputs that go into a compiler run, and can mediate with a cache to perform build avoidance (the practice of avoiding a build task because it can be safely skipped or elided entirely).

🌎🌍🌏 Shared build caching for all

Buildless is designed to make build caching fun and easy, and to do so at a price point which makes it available for everyone. In the same way that CDNs support all browsers, Buildless supports as many tools as possible:

Tailor-made for build caching

Buildless is designed from the ground up to support build acceleration and caching as a use case. See our Architecture page to learn more:

  • Lightning-fast edge CDN and routing to your cached objects, via Cloudflare
  • Best of breed Redis-compatible backend, via Dragonfly Cloud
  • Tunable replication system, multi-region cache sharing
  • Durable, but very fast, in-memory storage, with more persistent options available
