|
||
### Is Docker Build Cloud a standalone product or a part of Docker Desktop?
|
||
|
||
Docker Build Cloud is a service that can be used both with Docker Desktop and
|
||
standalone. It lets you build your container images faster, both locally and in
|
||
CI, with builds running on cloud infrastructure. The service uses a remote
|
||
build cache, ensuring fast builds anywhere and for all team members.
|
||
|
||
When used with Docker Desktop, the [Builds view](/desktop/use-desktop/builds/)
|
||
works with Docker Build Cloud out-of-the-box. It shows information about your
|
||
builds and those initiated by your team members using the same builder,
|
||
enabling collaborative troubleshooting.
|
||
|
||
To use Docker Build Cloud without Docker Desktop, you must
|
||
[download and install](/build-cloud/setup/#use-docker-build-cloud-without-docker-desktop)
|
||
a version of Buildx with support for Docker Build Cloud (the `cloud` driver).
|
||
If you plan on building with Docker Build Cloud using the `docker compose
|
||
build` command, you also need a version of Docker Compose that supports Docker
|
||
Build Cloud.
|
||
|
||
### How does Docker Build Cloud work with Docker Compose?
|
||
|
||
Docker Compose works out of the box with Docker Build Cloud. Install the Docker
|
||
Build Cloud-compatible client (buildx) and it works with both commands.
|
||
|
||
### How many minutes are included in Docker Build Cloud Team plans?
|
||
|
||
You receive 200 minutes per month per purchased seat. If you are also a Docker
|
||
subscriber (Personal, Pro, Team, Business), you will also receive your included
|
||
build minutes from that plan.
|
||
|
||
For example, if a Docker Team customer purchases 5 Build Cloud Team seats, they
|
||
will have 400 minutes from their Docker Team plan plus 1000 minutes (200 min/mo * 5 seats)
|
||
for a total of 1400 minutes per month.
|
||
|
||
### I’m a Docker personal user. Can I try Docker Build Cloud?
|
||
|
||
Docker subscribers (Pro, Team, Business) receive a set number of minutes each
|
||
month, shared across the account, to use Build Cloud.
|
||
|
||
If you do not have a Docker subscription, you may sign up for a free Personal
|
||
account and get 50 minutes per month. Personal accounts are limited to a single
|
||
user.
|
||
|
||
For teams to receive the shared cache benefit, they must either be on a Docker
|
||
Team, Docker Business, or paid Build Cloud Team plan. You may buy a month of
|
||
Build Cloud Team for the number of seats testing.
|
||
|
||
### Does Docker Build Cloud support CI platforms? Does it work with GitHub Actions?
|
||
|
||
Yes, Docker Build Cloud can be used with various CI platforms including GitHub
|
||
Actions, CircleCI, Jenkins, and others. It can speed up your build pipelines,
|
||
which means less time spent waiting and context switching.
|
||
|
||
Docker Build Cloud can be used with GitHub Actions to automate your build,
|
||
test, and deployment pipeline. Docker provides a set of official GitHub Actions
|
||
that you can use in your workflows.
|
||
|
||
Using GitHub Actions with Docker Build Cloud is straightforward. With a
|
||
one-line change in your GitHub Actions configuration, everything else stays the
|
||
same. You don't need to create new pipelines. Learn more in the [CI
|
||
documentation](/build-cloud/ci/) for Docker Build Cloud.
