INTEGRATING AND SHARING SOFTWARE BUILD COMPONENT TARGETS

Techniques are described for sharing software targets in componentized automated software product build processes. In some examples, a method includes identifying among software component builds having dependencies on software targets, two or more software targets having a number of common dependencies that exceeds a threshold. The method further includes integrating the two or more software targets into at least one integrated software target. The method further includes assigning at least one subset of software component builds having dependencies on the two or more software targets, as having dependencies on the at least one integrated software target. The method further includes executing a software build process using the at least one integrated software target and the assigned dependencies of the at least one subset of the software component builds on the at least one integrated software target.
