Summary:A scalable networked build automation system may include multiple users' workstations, multiple build machines, and an active build automation apparatus. In operation of an example implementation, a programmer checks-in coding changes from a user's workstation to the active build automation apparatus. When a new build is warranted based on the coding changes, the active build automation apparatus issues one or more build commands to a build machine. In response to the one or more build commands, the build machine performs build work. In another example implementation, a build process on a build machine is not running. Upon receipt of a build command from the active build automation apparatus, the build machine starts the build process.
