Buildbarn operations guide

Operate Buildbarn and Bazel RBE with evidence.

Buildbarn gives teams control of remote execution. Operating it well requires connecting infrastructure health to the builds, actions, and platform queues that create demand.

01

Understand the components

Start with the maintained implementations and deployment examples for storage, scheduling, workers, runners, and browsing.

02

Diagnose scheduling and workers

Check platform routing, eligible queues, size classes, worker registration, capacity, and demand.

03

Diagnose storage and execution

Connect CAS availability, queue wait, transfers, execution time, and build outcomes before changing capacity.

Investigate your own build data.

Hermetiq connects Bazel and Buildbarn telemetry to the answers your engineers and AI agents need.
