Why teams choose an open-source registry
Security scanning as a separate cost
Many commercial registries offer vulnerability scanning only as a paid add-on. With Artifact Keeper, Trivy, OpenSCAP, and Dependency-Track are included from day one at no extra cost.
Features split across pricing tiers
Replication, high availability, and advanced auth are often reserved for higher-priced plans. Artifact Keeper includes every feature in the open-source release.
Migration can be complex
Moving between artifact registries typically requires re-engineering CI/CD pipelines. Artifact Keeper includes built-in migration tooling to import repositories, artifacts, and permissions from existing registries.
Per-user pricing at scale
Per-seat licensing means costs grow with your team. Artifact Keeper is MIT licensed with no per-user fees, so you can scale your engineering team without scaling your registry bill.
We built Artifact Keeper because DevOps tooling shouldn’t have a paywall.
Everything included. No upgrade required.
