Cloudsmith has announced its support for the Chainguard Registry as an upstream source, enhancing security and efficiency in artifact management workflows. By consolidating all artifacts, packages, and images into Cloudsmith, organizations can reduce risk of attack, effortlessly deploy and distribute packages, ensure compliance and security, and safeguard their workflows from disruptions caused by repository outages. The integration also offers upstream proxying and caching capabilities, which streamline development processes, enhance performance, and maintain control over dependency management workflows. To integrate the Chainguard Registry into Cloudsmith, organizations can create a repository, configure upstream proxying settings, and pull Chainguard images using Docker native tooling. This integration unlocks a new level of reliability and control in development processes.
