Depot is a build acceleration platform that can accelerate Docker image builds and GitHub Actions jobs by up to 40x. Depot provides a remote container build service running optimized BuildKit with fast persistent NVMe-backed persistent caching. It supports building Intel, Arm, and multi-architecture images natively, without emulation. Developers send their builds to Depot with our CLI, a drop-in replacement for Docker build, locally or from their existing CI provider. Since we run BuildKit behind the scenes, we are fully compatible with the entire ecosystem of Docker tooling — anything that integrates with BuildKit integrates with Depot. In addition, Depot also provides GitHub Actions runners that leverage faster compute, 10x faster caching, and optimized runners for Intel, ARM, and GPU workloads—all for half the cost of GitHub-hosted runners. Today, Depot users can choose to self-host their build data plane, in which case all builds run inside the customer's AWS account. Or they can choose to have Depot host their builds to minimize their infrastructure costs.
