Heavy, complex builds can become a major roadblock for development teams, slowing down both local development and CI/CD pipelines.  Docker Build Cloud speeds up image build times to improve developer productivity, reduce frustrations, and help you shorten the release cycle. ## Who’s this for? - Anyone who wants to tackle common causes of slow image builds: limited local resources, slow emulation, and lack of build collaboration across a team. - Developers working on older machines who want to build faster. - Development teams working on the same repository who want to cut wait times with a shared cache. - Developers performing multi-architecture builds who don’t want to spend hours configuring and rebuilding for emulators. ## What you’ll learn - Building container images faster locally and in CI - Accelerating builds for multi-platform images - Reusing pre-built images to expedite workflows ## Tools integration Works well with Docker Compose, GitHub Actions, and other CI solutions <div id="dbc-lp-survey-anchor"></div>

Docker Build Cloud is designed to accelerate image build times, addressing common bottlenecks such as limited resources, slow emulation, and lack of team collaboration. It is aimed at developers and teams seeking faster builds, especially for multi-architecture images, and integrates with tools like Docker Compose and GitHub Actions.
