A smarter, faster, and cheaper solution
AI software development generates more code, more frequent pull requests, and more tests, overloading and slowing CI/CD pipelines. You need deeper observability to identify the bottlenecks and inefficiencies, and more comprehensive caching to accelerate build times, decrease latency and failure rates, and reduce spend across your CI infrastructure.
End-to-end acceleration
Universal Cache efficiently stores build inputs (such as dependencies and artifacts), setup files, and build outputs. By reusing data from jobs already run on CI, Universal Cache dramatically accelerates build times and removes one of the biggest sources of instability in the delivery pipeline.
Reduced cost
Universal Cache cuts cost by eliminating redundant work on CI. This significantly reduces execution volume and traffic, minimizing reliance on costly external repositories with consumption-based pricing, and ultimately preventing the need to scale expensive CI infrastructure.
Targeted caching via better observability
Since Universal Cache surfaces exactly which artifacts your builds need and where they come from, teams can rapidly identify inefficiencies and apply targeted caching for sustained speed and reliability gains.
Operational simplicity
Universal Cache operates as a single caching layer that requires no changes to existing projects or builds—it needs just one single deployment and delivers full toolchain coverage.
Secure governance
Artifact Cache seamlessly integrates with Develocity Provenance Governor to support continuous Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) automation throughout your toolchain. Leveraging detailed provenance data, attestation publishing, and policy enforcement, Develocity can block potentially vulnerable code, artifacts, dependencies and more to ensure a stable and secure system.
Get code into production faster
Universal Cache reimagines caching as a unified, observable solution that stores and reuses data from across the entire build process, from inputs to setup to outputs.
Artifact Cache
Artifacts that are inputs to the build—such as dependencies, toolchains (like JDKs), and build system (e.g. Maven, Gradle, npm) artifacts—are fetched and prepared from a cache before the main execution starts, eliminating lengthy download times and reducing timeouts and failures.
Setup Cache
Provides a fast, reliable, pre-configured build environment, ensuring every CI run is identical, fast, and stable from the moment it begins.
Build Cache
Speeds up builds by sharing outputs across machines, eliminating redundant work and unnecessary rebuilding. Teams can instantly reuse results from tasks/goals previously executed on other machines. Learn more
Observability as the caching compass
Observability ensures the success of your caching strategy. Without deep insights, it’s impossible to track reliability, measure savings (whether realized or potential), and make informed decisions about cache management.
Develocity Build Scan® is a persistent, shareable record of each build that contains detailed information on failures, tasks/goals, tests, and dependencies. This data feeds into Develocity Analytics, or your preferred reporting/BI tool, enabling trend analysis and identification of bottlenecks at the organizational level.

It’s time for fast, reliable, and cheap CI
CI infrastructure is becoming both inefficient and prohibitively expensive. But there’s a clear path back to CI efficiency, centered on one powerful concept.
