What is JFrog Connect?

JFrog Connect, part of the JFrog Platform, simplifies and secures the entire IoT development lifecycle. It unifies industry-leading artifact management, robust security, and enterprise-grade scalability for efficient, secure deployments of your IoT fleets. Manage and secure your software supply chain, from developer to device, with a single platform.

Manage and Secure Your
IoT Software Supply Chain

JFrog Connect is an integral part of the JFrog Platform, providing edge and IoT management at scale. JFrog Connect is natively integrated with JFrog Artifactory and JFrog Security, incorporating modern DevOps governance and security at every phase, ensuring trusted software releases from developer to device.

Automate OTA Device Updates

Create custom updates (run commands, scripts, deploy artifacts, files or containers) to thousands of devices with a simple click and shorten deployment times from days to hours.

Fleet Scale Management

Comprehensive device management enables you to categorize fleet devices into logical groups and subgroups, making it easy to monitor, manage and update efficiently.

Continuous Monitoring

Gain complete visibility of your fleet devices at scale. Monitor device resources (CPU, RAM, Disk), state and applications, with automated alerts to keep devices safe and stable, and address issues before they become escalations.

Swift Device Onboarding

JFrog Connect's unique and lightweight design takes less than a minute to connect any type of Linux or IoT device. Need to add a thousand devices? Embed the Connect Agent to the image, and you’re ready to go.

Remote Access & Control

Securely troubleshoot and resolve device issues from anywhere in the world using SSH, VNC, port forwarding and remote Bash commands. Gain remote control over any fleet device with a single click, even those located within private networks or behind firewalls.

Your OS. Your Hardware. No Lock-in.

Choose from common Linux distributions including Yocto, Debian, Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, and popular hardware platforms like NVIDIA Jetson, BeagleBone and Raspberry Pi. Contact us for alternative operating systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

JFrog Connect is an IoT and Edge device management solution within the JFrog Platform. It extends your secure Software Supply Chain to the edge, enabling you to manage, secure, and deliver over-the-air (OTA) software updates to connected devices at any scale.

Yes, JFrog Connect is a core component of the JFrog Platform. It integrates natively with JFrog Artifactory and JFrog Security, providing a single, unified solution for the entire dev-to-device software lifecycle.

JFrog Connect solves the critical "last mile" challenge of delivering software to devices. By replacing fragmented toolchains and insecure custom scripts, Connect helps prevent downtime and update failures, ensures secure and trusted updates, and reduces the operational costs in managing fleet of devices.

JFrog Connect deploys trusted software bundles directly from JFrog Artifactory, extending Artifactory's role as your single source of truth. This creates a complete, auditable trail from your build pipeline to your devices.

Connect leverages JFrog Security to provide real-time vulnerability visibility on every device and every deployment. With visibility of the software deployed on each device, users can quickly identify exposure and roll out fixes to devices in the field before issues escalate.

Yes. JFrog Connect deploys OTA updates.This gives a unified workflow to manage all your device software.

Devices only need outbound access over port 443 (HTTPS) to a defined list of JFrog services. They do not require a public IP address or open inbound firewall ports, allowing you to manage devices securely behind a firewall. See the full network requirements in our documentation.

JFrog Connect is offered as a cloud (SaaS) service and can also be installed on-premise as part of the self-hosted JFrog Platform. The cloud service securely supports a hybrid model with an on-premise Artifactory. Agents on the devices pull updates directly from your Artifactory instance, ensuring your artifacts are never stored in the Connect cloud service.

Yes. JFrog Connect is built to manage fleets from a handful of prototypes to millions of devices globally, ensuring stable rollouts and high availability through its cloud-native architecture.

JFrog Connect prevents update failures by using controlled, phased rollouts and supports automated rollbacks to a previous safe version if any issues are detected, ensuring device uptime and reliability.

Yes. JFrog Connect integrates seamlessly into modern CI/CD workflows through REST APIs, and direct Artifactory integration - allowing your DevOps teams to automate secure device software delivery at scale.
