07/31/2015, 6:32 PMI see. And what type of server do I need to run as an artifact cache? http://pantsbuild.github.io/setup_repo.html#outside-caches just says 'RESTful server URL' - b

07/31/2015, 7:14 PMWe actually are using a shared NFS directory now in our CI builder. We were a bit nervous about using NFS for much of anything, but it has been reliable so far. - m

07/31/2015, 7:19 PM@ancient-stone-50795: in your example nginx, theres no security layer, so I’m assuming your cache server is using some network-level security to isolate it to the CI’s and/or developers? - b

07/31/2015, 7:28 PM@mammoth-autumn-2551: we did add security later, that document is a bit old. I don’t hav etime to dig it up at the moment, but it was just basic auth stuff (.netrc files) and very simple to setup in nginx - h

07/31/2015, 7:34 PMif you're able to run in
