Artifact Keeper serves as a self-hosted universal software artifact repository that consolidates container images, application libraries, and infrastructure bundles under a unified management control plane. Software development teams can publish and resolve dependencies using their existing build tools, including Docker, Helm, npm, PyPI, Maven, Cargo, NuGet, and Terraform without installing proprietary client plugins. Remote repositories act as transparent pull-through caching proxies for public upstreams like Docker Hub and PyPI, accelerating internal CI/CD build speeds while insulating production pipelines from external registry outages. Virtual repositories combine multiple local, remote, and third-party endpoints into single URLs, resolving packages across prioritized internal teams and public registries automatically. Automated security scanners evaluate incoming packages for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures using Trivy and Grype engines, assigning letter grades and enforcing quarantine policies to block vulnerable binaries before production release. Administrators can sign package metadata with cryptographic GPG keys, configure peer mesh replication across geographic regions, and manage team permissions using OpenID Connect, SAML, and granular access tokens.

Trusted by millions of developers and integrated into CI/CD pipelines at organizations worldwide, Sonatype Nexus Repository is the industry-standard binary artifact repository manager that stores, organizes, and distributes software components across every major package ecosystem. Community Edition supports over 20 formats including Maven for Java builds, npm for JavaScript packages, Docker for container images, PyPI for Python libraries, NuGet for .NET assemblies, Helm for Kubernetes charts, Go modules, RubyGems, Cargo for Rust crates, Conda for data science environments, APT for Debian packages, Yum for RPM distributions, and Hugging Face for AI/ML models. Three repository types serve different needs: hosted repositories store internally-produced artifacts, proxy repositories cache remote registries like Maven Central, npmjs.org, and Docker Hub reducing bandwidth and improving build reliability, and group repositories aggregate multiple hosted and proxy repositories behind a single URL endpoint. The web UI provides component browsing and search, repository configuration, blob store management with configurable cleanup policies, and direct artifact upload via drag-and-drop. Role-based access control enforces fine-grained permissions per repository with configurable security realms, while the comprehensive REST API enables automated repository provisioning, component management, and integration with Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Azure DevOps. External PostgreSQL database support enables Kubernetes deployments with improved backup, restore, and horizontal scaling capabilities.
