Managing Concurrent Builds

Generally, when you make multiple deployments in the same Vercel account, the builds get queued, and only one deployment is built at a time. Concurrent Builds allow you to build multiple deployments with Vercel simultaneously.

Team accounts allow you to increase the number of Concurrent Builds from the Billing section on the Team Settings page, enabling the team to create deployments faster.

You can manage the number of concurrent builds on the Team Settings page, under Billing. Depending on your plan, you can edit the number of slots required for your team.

When builds get queued, they are processed in chronological order (FIFO Order). This can delay the production release process if a build has to wait until queued preview deployments are finished.

To ensure that changes to the production environment are prioritized over preview deployments in the queue, you can enable Prioritize Production Builds:

1. From your Vercel dashboard, select the project you wish to enable it for
2. Select the Settings tab, and go to the Advanced section of your Project Settings
3. Under Prioritize Production Builds, toggle the switch to Enabled
