Summary

Deploying JFrog Artifactory Enterprise as a Kubernetes Docker registry using Nutanix Karbon is streamlined by leveraging Nutanix's Kubernetes Certified distribution, which simplifies Kubernetes provisioning, operations, and lifecycle management. This guide demonstrates setting up a highly available Artifactory installation via a Helm chart, capitalizing on Nutanix Karbon's default Storage Class and integrated CSI Volume Driver for efficient persistent storage management. The deployment process involves configuring the necessary resources, such as MetalLB for external IP assignment and setting up NGINX for reverse proxy purposes. Artifactory Enterprise requires a license, with a free trial option available, and once installed, users can manage various package types beyond Docker, including setting up a Docker registry and pushing Docker images. The walk-through emphasizes the ease of deployment and management using Nutanix's infrastructure and JFrog's tools, highlighting Artifactory's versatility in handling multiple package formats.
