# Simple configuration

Just copy a few lines to your .bazelrc, and you're off to the races.

# Auto-scaling

Scale your executor cluster up and down auto-magically based on load using custom metrics.

# Custom docker images

Pick your distro, install the tools you need. All you need to do is specify your own custom docker image.

# Pre-emptible machines

Our executors were designed from the ground up to run on preemptible machines. This means you can take advantage of Spot VM pricing.

# Remote persistent workers

Need a warm JVM? Our executors support remote persistent workers to speed up JIT compilation.

# Bring your own executors

Bringing your own executors gives you all of the advantages of BuildBuddy Cloud while still using your own hardware.

# Live action view

Watch remotely executing actions live, as they're happening.

# Action explorer

View input files, command details, environment variables, timing information, output files, and more for each individual action.

# Action timeline

Dive into the timing breakdown of individual actions to see where the time is being spent.

# Mac executors

Intel and M1 executor binaries allow you to run Mac-native executors for iOS builds and more.

## And much more!
