Abstract

A set of source files is stored in a shared storage repository for nodes of a distributed computing environment for software compilation. An object file is created based on at least a portion of the set of source files. A directed acyclic graph (DAG) is generated corresponding to a group of software build tasks and the relationship between the software build tasks based on the set of source files. A replication factor for the object file is determined based on the number of relationships of the object file identified from the DAG. The object file is stored in a local memory cache of at least one of the number of the nodes, wherein the number of the nodes is based on the replication factor for the object file.
