AWS CodeArtifact vs. Artifactory: Which Should You Choose for Binary Management?

Since the inception of JFrog – with OSS Artifactory – we’ve been adamant that you simply cannot deliver software with any type of scale, speed, or reliability without a robust artifact management solution. Now, over a decade later, other vendors in the industry are finally starting to catch on. AWS recently announced its CodeArtifact service for binary management.

Launching JFrog ChartCenter: The Helm Chart Central Repository for the Community

The number of publicly available Helm charts is continuously growing and while this is great for the community, it can be challenging to navigate the vast sea of Helm charts and Helm chart repositories. Like a ship’s captain, you need more than just a list of where you can go, but the details to ensure those under your charge arrive certainly and safely. Not just what can be seen on the surface, but what lies underneath, and the hazards that await.

Advanced Packaging Options with JFrog CLI

In some cases, our application requires a unique layout when it is packaged. The package should include various binaries, and test files with metadata, arranged in specific directories. The various components of the package sometimes have their own versions and they can be created by different process. If all of those components are managed in Artifactory, JFrog CLI can be configured to pick the right components, and package them together, according to a defined layout. In this webinar we'll see how you can use JFrog CLI as a packaging tool for your binaries.

How to Pick a Winning Go Module

With a near-endless list of Go Modules, it can be overwhelming trying to decide which is best for your Go build. For new Go developers, it can be difficult to pick a winner for your specific use case. This phenomenon is nothing new. In fact, it’s one of the reasons why open-source is so important for developers. Oftentimes, when a module is published by a developer, it was likely developed to solve a specific problem that they are facing.
