BuildFetch Cache vs cachepot

BuildFetch Cache is a remote cache platform intended to reduce build times and CI costs across build systems. It lists native support for Bazel, Gradle, Maven, Sbt, Buck2, Moon, Buildbarn, Ccache, Sccache, Go, Nx, and Turborepo; its listed compiler and language support includes C, C++, Rust, Go, Kotlin, Java, TypeScript, Scala, Assembly, CUDA, Objective-C, Objective-C++, and AMD ROCm HIP. Remote cache outputs can be shared across engineer workstations, CI, and AI agent environments. For Bazel, it supports both gRPC and HTTP remote cache APIs. BuildFetch uses NVMe for ephemeral cache storage and SSD for persistent storage, and its dashboard shows throughput, tail latency, request volume, and storage usage. Scoped project tokens can set read-only or read-write access. The product is offered through BuildFetch Cloud and can also be deployed in Custom Cloud or on-premise Kubernetes environments. The free Open Source plan has caps of 20GB fast cache storage, 50GB network traffic, and 100,000 cache requests, with 45 days LRU retention; those resource caps cannot be exceeded. Paid plans start at $55 a month, and a 45-day trial is listed for Custom. BuildFetch says data is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Cachepot is a compiler caching tool for Linux, macOS, Windows, and self-hosted environments. It keeps compilation results on local disk or cloud storage so a build can reuse them rather than compile again when possible. The documented compilers include GCC, Clang, MSVC, rustc, NVCC, and Diab. Cachepot can also distribute compilation in an icecream-style setup, automatically packaging local toolchains. Storage choices include local disk, S3, Redis, Memcached, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage. Build integrations include Cargo, CMake, GNU make, Jenkins, and GitLab CI. The project describes authentication, encrypted transport, and sandboxed execution on build servers as security features; bubblewrap is its preferred sandbox option, with Docker also supported. The default local cache limit is 10 gigabytes and can be changed with CACHEPOT_CACHE_SIZE. Rust crates that invoke the system linker and incrementally compiled crates cannot be cached, and cache hits require matching absolute paths. Cachepot is free and open source under Apache-2.0, but its repository was archived on February 28, 2023, in favor of upstream sccache.
