Hi Eli, RBE stands for Remote Build Execution. It is not built into Bazel, but there are a couple of open source as well as commercial options, documented here: https://docs.bazel.build/versions/4.0.0/remote-execution.html
Full disclosure: I work for one of the commercial vendors in this space and we contributed some patches in the past to improve AOSP builds. Last I checked, we could successfully build AOSP in ~20 minutes in the best case scenario.
