What is Artifact Keeper?

A full-featured, enterprise-grade artifact registry you can self-host in minutes. Drop-in replacement for JFrog Artifactory and Sonatype Nexus with zero feature gates — security scanning, SSO, replication, all 45+ package formats — everything ships in the open-source release.

No open-core. No "enterprise edition." No surprise invoices.

Core Features

45+ Package Formats — Native protocol support. Not a generic blob store with format labels. Your package managers (pip install, npm install, docker pull, cargo add, helm install, go get, etc.) talk directly to Artifact Keeper using their native protocols.

Security Scanning — Automated vulnerability detection with Trivy and SBOM analysis with OWASP Dependency-Track. Policy engine with severity thresholds, quarantine workflows, and scan-before-download enforcement.

WASM Plugin System — Extend with custom format handlers via WebAssembly. Ship your own package format support without forking the backend. Fork the example plugin to get started.

Edge Replication — Mesh-based artifact distribution with swarm sync and P2P transfers between nodes. Put caches close to your build agents.

SSO & Multi-Auth — OpenID Connect, LDAP, SAML 2.0, JWT, and API tokens. RBAC with per-repository permissions.

Artifactory Migration — Built-in tooling to migrate repositories, artifacts, users, and permissions from JFrog Artifactory. One command.

Full-Text Search — Meilisearch-powered search across all repositories, packages, and artifact metadata.

Mobile Apps

Manage your registries from anywhere. Monitor builds, browse repositories, trigger security scans, and administer users — all from native mobile apps with adaptive layouts.
