Episode notes

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how Shopify slashed build times by up to 90 percent using remote caching. They break down the technical architecture behind the change, from build cache keys to distributed storage, and discuss the organizational shifts that made it possible. Along the way, they examine the trade-offs - like cache invalidation and security - and what other engineering teams can learn from Shopify's approach. If you're a CTO, engineering leader, or developer tired of waiting on builds, this episode offers practical insights into one of the most impactful performance wins in modern CI/CD. #Shopify #RemoteCaching #BuildTimes #CI/CD #DevOps #EngineeringLeadership #CTO #TechLeadership #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #BuildOptimization #CacheInvaldation #DistributedCache #EngineeringCulture #PerformanceEngineering #SoftwareDevelopment Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
