# Aspect Cloud

> Aspect Cloud runs Aspect Workflows as a multi-tenant service: a shared Bazel remote cache and the Build Results UI, with nothing to provision and a free tier.

Aspect Cloud is Aspect Workflows as a multi-tenant service, run by Aspect. It gives a Bazel repository a shared remote cache and the Build Results UI with no cloud account to open and nothing to deploy. CI and developers share the cache.

It's for individual developers and teams who want shared caching and build history without running infrastructure. Setup is a login and a few Bazel flags, which the Aspect CLI writes for you.

## Tiers and pricing

Aspect Cloud has a Free tier and a Team tier.

## What's included

| Capability                                                                        | On Aspect Cloud                                             |

| [Remote cache](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/remote-cache)             | ✓                                                           |
| [Build Results UI](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/webui)                | ✓                                                           |
| [Remote execution](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/remote-execution)     | Coming soon                                                 |
| [CI runners](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/ci-runners)                 | Coming soon: Linux runners, customized through an OCI image |
| [Selective delivery](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/selective-delivery) | Coming soon                                                 |
| Single sign-on (SSO)                                                              | Coming soon                                                 |

Until remote execution and CI runners arrive, actions run on your own machines with the cache in front of them, and your pipelines stay on the CI runners you already use.

## Get started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign up">
    [Create an Aspect account](https://signup.aspect.build/) on the Free tier. No credit card
    needed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your machine">
    The [Quickstart](/quickstart) installs the CLI and connects a build to Aspect Cloud.
    [Local setup](/docs/aspect-workflows/cloud/local-setup) is the full version.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add it to CI">
    One setup step on GitHub Actions, Buildkite, CircleCI or GitLab, on the runners you
    already have. Your existing `bazel` steps are unchanged. See
    [CI setup](/docs/aspect-workflows/cloud/ci-setup).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Check the results

Open any build in the [Build Results UI](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/features/webui). The Cache tab shows the hit rate, and [`aspect cache diff`](/docs/cli/tasks/cache_diff) lists any actions that missed.

## Your team

Each developer signs in with their own Aspect account. An Account Owner or Account Admin invites teammates in [Aspect settings](https://app.aspect.build/settings/org/users) and gives each one a role; [Your Aspect account](/docs/cli/authentication#your-aspect-account) lists the roles.

## Your data

Aspect Cloud runs on shared infrastructure. Every request is authenticated to your organization, and cache contents are encrypted at rest. You sign in with the same Aspect account that installs the [GitHub](/docs/cli/authentication-github) and [GitLab](/docs/cli/authentication-gitlab) Apps.

[Security and data handling](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/security) covers what Aspect Cloud stores and where; the [security overview](/security-overview) covers compliance, including Aspect's SOC 2 Type 2 certification.

## Getting help

**[Join the Aspect Community Slack](https://slack.aspect.build)**, Aspect's free community support. Ask in `#help` for general support. Join the discussion and see what others are building with the [Aspect CLI](/docs/cli/overview) and [Aspect Extension Language (AXL)](/docs/cli/axl) in the `#cli` and `#axl` channels.

For Bazel and the Bazel rulesets, [Bazel Slack](https://slack.bazel.build) is the best place for support and discussion. Ask about Aspect's [rules\_js](/docs/bazel/javascript) in `#javascript` and [rules\_py](/docs/bazel/python) in `#python`.

## Moving to Aspect Enterprise

[Choosing an offering](/docs/aspect-workflows/platform/choosing) compares Aspect Cloud with Aspect Enterprise. Moving changes endpoints and credentials, not your build; the new deployment's cache starts cold.
