[yocto] Bitbake and task offloading onto multiple cloud-based servers

[Alex J Lennon]

Can anybody advise on whether bitbake currently supports offloading of
build tasks onto multiple systems? Perhaps cloud based?

I'm thinking that it would be more efficient for me if I could bring up
a number of Amazon EC2 servers (or similar) then have bitbake
parallelise the build onto those servers to significantly reduce my
build times?

I see bitbake supports a level of task parallelisation on a single box.

Can parallelisation of build onto multiple systems be achieved?

Is it something that should even be a goal?

Cheers,

Alex
