How Broadcom stays efficient and nimble with monorepos

Broadcom, a global technology leader, faced challenges managing its complex software application portfolio, particularly with its VMware suite, due to inefficiencies in DevOps and the autonomy of various teams. To address this, Broadcom adopted a monorepo strategy to consolidate projects and streamline workflows, despite initial resistance from teams used to independent operations. They enlisted the help of Nx co-founders Victor Savkin and Jeff Cross, whose platform proved instrumental in this transition. By demonstrating the tangible benefits of a monorepo, such as faster builds and simpler workflows, Broadcom successfully shifted its organizational culture towards collaborative development. As a result, the company has seen significant improvements, including reduced CI times and increased productivity, solidifying the monorepo as a company-wide strategy. The partnership with Nx has facilitated continuous innovation, positioning Broadcom at the forefront of efficient software development practices.
