Local repositories are physical locally-managed repositories that one can deploy artifacts into. Artifactory comes with a couple of pre-configured local repositories for deploying internal and external releases, snapshots and plugins.
Overview. JFrog Artifactory is a universal DevOps solution providing end-to-end automation and management of binaries and artifacts through the application delivery process that improves productivity across your development ecosystem.
Sonatype Nexus performs a health check on a repository. JFrog's Xray scans for both regulatory issues and vulnerabilities as well. JFrog tightly links Xray to its Artifactory repository, which provides metadata the tool uses to parse linkages between code components, libraries, production applications and projects.

For development, you need features like:
For distribution, you need stuff like:

Of course, there are common requirements:
and we have all that covered of course :)
