- Onboard existing repositories as they enter the monorepo, including harmonizing their homegrown toolchains with our standardized offers.
- Expand B&R support to accommodate new languages. We currently support Java and Scala, and are expanding to Python.
- Support teams with company-wide migrations and version upgrades, such as build and runtime environment versions and library versions.
- Work alongside company-wide build experts to incorporate existing company-wide tools into our environment.
