> 5) Forge -- basically Blaze's remote build execution (what Bazel calls RBEs). Almost every build at Google is extremely parallelized, and if you need to run flake tests, running a suite of tests 10,000 times is almost as fast as running it once. This is available outside Google now - start at https://github.com/bazelbuild/remote-apis https://github.com/bazelbuild/remote-apis or https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/remote-execution.html https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/remote-execution.ht... . It's a standardized API, supported by a growing set of build tools (notably Bazel, Pants, Please) with a variety of OSS and Commercial implementations. At this point almost anyone can set up Remote Execution if they wish to, and remote caching is even easier. Minor terminology correction: RBE generally refers to Google's own implementation of the same name; Remote Execution (RE) and the REAPI are used to refer to the generic concept. (Disclaimer: I work on this at Google.)
