A package manager wins on the strength of its warriors — those developer leaders who passionately advocate for it to be adopted by their teams and organizations. In just two years, Conan quickly found its champions among C/C++ developers, and their feedback and code contributions have been vital in making the open source software package manager a powerful solution.

Let me share with you my story about finding the right AI Solution to improve our support self service. The starting point of my journey was pretty common, many will read this and think “Yes! I suffer the same pain”. At JFrog we produce tons of relevant and clever documentation. It’s all out there, available. And yet, we struggle to get to the right piece of information when looking for something specific.

With the latest release of JFrog Artifactory, your Kubernetes world just got a lot bigger. Artifactory’s Docker registries are now compliant with the Open Container Initiative (OCI). Repository support for images compatible with OCI and support for the Helm 3 client mean you can run K8s with a high degree of versatility. Once you’re no longer locked exclusively into Docker, you can run either part of your container ecosystem or all of it using any OCI-compatible client.

Have you heard? Docker Hub now limits usage by free anonymous and credentialed accounts. After the number of pulls from an IP address exceeds a fixed threshold within a six hour period (100 for anonymous, 200 for credentialed), Docker Hub throttles bandwidth. You’ll still get your Docker images, but at a much slower speed. You can read our earlier blog post to learn more about the Docker Hub policy changes.

It takes a large team to manage enterprise DevOps, and it can take a large team of binary repository managers, too. It’s vital to get all team members going the same way, and quickly. A growing developer organization will have many instances of Artifactory to help them scale, on multiple nodes for high availability and multi-site repository replication. Configuring them all precisely, with the same set of repositories, users, and permissions, can’t be done effectively one at a time.

You may have heard the latest Docker announcement about the new rate limits for container image pulls. Starting November 1st, Docker will start to limit Docker Hub usage based on your subscription level and block pull requests that exceed imposed limits. Not only that, Docker has also put in place a new retention policy, six months for free accounts, for inactive images (originally slated for November 1, this policy has been delayed to mid-2021 due to community feedback).

Hi, my name is Ayana Yokota and I’m a Developer Advocate at JFrog. I’m excited to introduce the first blog post in my JFrog customers interview series, highlighting unique use-cases and success stories. This fascinating first interview was held with Mr. Yan and Mr. Moriya, from the Infrastructure Engineering team, and Mr. Etourneau from the Arene Tools team, in the Toyota Research Institute – Advanced Development, Inc. (TRI-AD).

In a prior blog post, we explained how to install or update Artifactory through the Azure Marketplace in the amount of time it takes for your coffee order to arrive on the counter. Now you can add to your self-managed (BYOL) Artifactory deployment Xray, the cream of software component analysis (SCA) tools, through the Azure Marketplace as well.

The best way to stay out of danger is to keep far away from where danger lurks. But in the internet age, the global network means risk to your systems is from everywhere, at all times. With estimates that worldwide damage from cybercrime will exceed 6 trillion dollars by 2021, many companies choose, or are required by regulations to isolate their most sensitive systems to avoid any type of security breach.

With any huge task, more helpers make it go faster. That’s the solution large organizations increasingly seek for deploying large applications to hundreds of nodes. When others pitch in, many hands make light work. JFrog is pleased to introduce Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Distribution to help deliver content to huge K8s cluster runtime environments efficiently and at scale.
