In large-scale software development efforts, effective communication between projects is essential to ensure consistency, reproducibility, and efficiency. This presentation explores strategies to improve coordination among software teams by leveraging Continuous Integration (CI) for relaying crucial build configurations while maintaining security for proprietary project sources. We will demonstrate best practices for sharing build configurations with upstream projects without exposing proprietary code.

A key focus will be optimizing the use of Spack, particularly in reducing the number of Spack Package Repositories utilized across multiple teams. This will simplify maintenance, harden builds, and avoiding duplication. Additionally, we will highlight the benefits of heavily integrating Spack CI to generate build caches, which will reduce rebuild times, and enhance software portability. By adopting these approaches, teams can achieve better collaboration, streamlined workflows, and improved software sustainability.
