Nexus Repository is an artifact repository manager that stores, versions and distributes build artifacts and components for software development. It supports multiple formats, access control, proxying remote registries and repository grouping. Teams use it to secure dependencies, implement CI/CD pipelines and centralize binary storage for reproducible builds…

Nexus Repository is a repository manager that stores, proxies, and distributes packages and build artifacts for development, dependencies, and releases.
Sonatype developed Nexus Repository from the need to provide dependencies and produced artifacts centrally, controllably, and repeatably in build processes; the manager grew into an open-source and commercial product line.
Imagine a warehouse with controlled entrances and exits: external packages are cached, your builds are versioned, and teams or pipelines receive only what they need.
An artifact is a versioned, distributable file such as a package or container image.
A proxy repository retrieves packages from an external source and caches them internally.
A group repository exposes several sources through one endpoint.
Nexus Repository combines proxy, hosted, and group repositories into a controlled source for binary artifacts.
