Full compatibility with Docker

A binary repository in Artifactory can be designated as a Docker repository to contain Docker images. Artifactory supports all Docker functions for tagging the images its Docker repositories contain. You can create as many Docker repositories as you need in Artifactory, without limit.

Artifactory supports the relevant calls of the Docker Registry HTTP API, so you can manage all your Docker images in Artifactory transparently with the Docker client. Just invoke Docker from the command line as you would any other Docker registry service to add images to a repository or pull images for distribution to a Docker engine.

Flexible and Fast

Artifactory can proxy a remote Docker registry through remote repositories, providing a local cache of a remote Docker resource such as Docker Hub. Doing so can speed builds, provide better control, and insure against interruption to remote resources.

Artifactory can aggregate images from both local and remote repositories into a virtual Docker repository. By doing so, Docker images can be accessed from a single URL, while administrators can manage the individual repositories.

Any Docker repository in Artifactory, whether local or a remote proxy, can be included in a private Docker registry in Artifactory.

Safe and Secure

Use JFrog Xray scanning to make sure your container applications have no known security vulnerabilities, and that all components are in compliance with your organization’s license policies. With Artifactory, you can build a secure, automated pipeline from code all the way to Docker.

Privacy protection

A private Docker registry in Artifactory securely shares collections of Docker repositories within your organization, limiting use to those with permissions. When installed on-premises in your data center, Artifactory can maintain your Docker trusted registry on your own server, behind your organization’s firewall along with all of the sensitive data you need to protect for security or regulatory compliance.

Fully compatible with Docker

Artifactory supports the relevant calls of the Docker Registry HTTP API, so you can manage all your Docker images in Artifactory transparently with the Docker client. Just invoke Docker from the command line as you would any other Docker registry service to add images to a repository or pull images for distribution to a Docker engine.

Control access to apps

Define multiple Docker registries in Artifactory, as many as you wish, to manage each project in its own registry. Each registry may have its own authentication credentials, so you can control fine-grained access to your Docker images and enforce isolation of applications between groups in your organization.

Flexible as you need

In any private Docker registry in Artifactory, you can mix whatever types of Docker repository held by Artifactory that you choose. So you can include Docker repositories of the containers you built yourself, as well as Docker repositories in Artifactory that proxy from remote Docker resources such as Docker Hub.
