Depot launches next-generation compute platform "Depot Metal" with 30% faster workloads
By
Jacob Gillespie
Summary
Depot has launched Depot Metal, the 4th generation of its compute and storage platform, which powers Depot CI and Depot Sandboxes. The new platform combines learnings from previous iterations into a unified architecture with direct control over each tier, including EC2 bare metal compute. Benchmarks show workloads running 30% faster, with more optimizations incoming, and existing users automatically benefit at no additional cost.

· 5 pulledYour Depot CI and Sandbox workloads just got faster thanks to Depot Metal, the next generation of our compute platform.
Our benchmarks already show workloads running 30% faster, with more optimizations incoming.
If you use Depot CI or Depot Sandboxes, they're already running on Depot Metal at no additional cost.
Depot Metal is the 4th iteration of our compute and storage platform, combining the learnings from all previous storage and compute at Depot into one unified platform.
This architecture gives us direct control over each tier: direct control over compute with EC2 bare metal, ultra-fas
