Why Artifact Keeper?

Every organization that ships software depends on an artifact registry. The industry leaders charge tens of thousands per year — and gate critical features like security scanning, SSO, and replication behind enterprise tiers.

Artifact Keeper is the alternative. A single MIT-licensed binary that ships everything:

  • 45+ package formats with native protocol support — pip, npm, cargo, docker, helm, maven, nuget, and more talk directly to it
  • Security scanning — built-in Trivy + Grype integration, SBOM generation, license compliance
  • Enterprise auth — OIDC, LDAP, SAML, API keys, TOTP — all included
  • Edge replication — mesh-based P2P sync across data centers
  • WebAssembly plugins — extend with custom format handlers without forking
  • Migration tooling — import directly from Artifactory and Nexus

Built in Rust for reliability and performance. Runs on a single node or scales across a Kubernetes cluster.

What sponsorship supports

Artifact Keeper is built and maintained by a small team. Your sponsorship directly funds:

  • Continued development of new package format support
  • Security updates and vulnerability response
  • Documentation, testing infrastructure, and CI/CD
  • Keeping the project 100% open-source with zero feature gates — forever

Every contribution, at any tier, helps us keep enterprise-grade artifact management free and accessible to everyone.
