Overall Satisfaction with Sonatype Nexus Platform
We use Nexus as a repository for our code artifacts for different languages. Mainly for JavaScript/Typescript libraries and Java libraries but also docker images. The libraries are typically provided for multiple projects. Another use-case is to use Nexus as a proxy to other Maven-based repositories.
Pros
- Manage different versions of java artifacts.
- Works as a package manager for JavaScript based apps.
- User management integrated with our company active directory server.
Cons
- The user interface is complex and not easy to understand for first time users.
- The administration and configuration is kind of complex.
- Central repository for java artifacts
- Central repository for docker container
- Improved build times because of cached artifacts.
- Improved reproducibility of builds because of central repository for dependencies.
