Depot Metal is our next-generation compute and storage platform. Depot CI and Sandboxes are now running on it, with benchmarks showing workloads 30% faster and more optimizations on the way. You don't have to do anything to get it.

How PlanetScale Metal accelerated our database query performance and allowed us to store extended build analytics data.

We are excited to announce an upgrade to Depot-managed macOS GitHub Actions runners that greatly accelerates disk I/O for all macOS jobs.

It's possible to cut EC2 boot time from 40 seconds to 5 seconds by combining several optimizations like root volume streaming, instance warm pools, and instance resizing.

Exploring how OCI images represent layers, how layers can modify and delete files from previous layers, and how container runtimes combine layers into a single filesystem.

We're excited to release the Dockerfile Explorer, a tool for introspecting the LLB output of BuildKit's Dockerfile parser.

We're reducing time-to-start by optimizing EC2 instance boot time, infrastructure provisioning, and improving UI and CLI flows to reduce unnecessary steps.

We're added a build summary link for every build and refreshed the build details UI to make it easier to see what's going on with your builds at a glance.

A Kysely dialect for PlanetScale that allows you to write type-safe and autocompletion-friendly SQL queries.

Writing a Dockerfile that builds quickly involves understanding the Docker layer cache and working with it to maximize the number of cache hits between builds.
