What is & Why Nexus?

  • Nexus is a private repository server 
    • Your builds can download dependencies from Nexus and can publish artifacts to Nexus creating a new way to share artifacts within an organization. 
    • While Central repository has always served as a great convenience for developers you shouldn't be hitting it directly. You should be proxying Central with Nexus and maintaining your own repositories to ensure stability within your organization. 
  • With Nexus you can completely control access to, and deployment of, every artifact in your organization from a single location.
