Artifactory offers powerful enterprise features and fine-grained permission control behind a sleek and easy-to-use UI. Artifactory acts as a proxy between your build tool (Maven, Ant, Ivy, Gradle etc.) and the outside world.

It caches remote artifacts so that you don’t have to download them over and over again. It blocks unwanted (and sometimes security-sensitive) external requests for internal artifacts and controls how and where artifacts are deployed, and by whom.
With Artifactory, you can gain full control over all the build artifacts and third-party dependencies your organization uses and even share repositories throughout your interdepartmental and/or multi-team environment no matter where your team members may be located.

Built on top of the Java Content Repository (JCR), Artifactory supports extremely high concurrency and offers unmatched data integrity. The underlying, backup-ready storage supports Artifactory’s OpenMetadata(TM) technology, allowing every repository item to be attached with searchable XML metadata and user-defined properties.
