Bitrise, a Budapest, Hungary-based Mobile DevOps company, acquired Flare Build Systems, Inc., a San Francisco, CA-based provider of backend services which help realize the full potential of the Bazel build system.
The amount of the deal was not disclosed.
With the acquisition, Bitrise will integrate Flare’s product suite and expertise into its Mobile DevOps Ecosystem.
Led by CEO Barnabás Birmacher, Bitrise enables organizations to automate testing, accelerate build times, and understand how new pieces of code will affect live apps. Customers include Transferwise (now “WISE”), Virgin Mobile, Grindr, Marks & Spencer, Tag Heuer, Compass, Mozilla, Philips Hue, and Babbel. Bitrise is a Y Combinator company, headquartered in Budapest, with offices in London, San Francisco, Boston and Osaka.
With the integration of Flare.Build, Bitrise is now also providing benefits for mobile teams through other build tools, such as Gradle, Tuist, and Xcode, even without Bazel. By adapting Flare.Build’s advanced caching and CDN technology to these other tools, Bitrise users will have the ability to speed up feedback loops, iterate faster, and multiply their app build performance.
