JFrog App for Slack

Overview

As your mission-critical tools for DevOps, the results of many key events that occur in Artifactory and Xray reveal whether or not your software pipeline is on-track to deliver production-quality releases. 

The JFrog app for Slack brings real-time visibility and awareness of what’s happening in your JFrog-powered software pipelines to your entire team through one of the most widely used collaboration tools. 

Many software development teams rely on the Slack communication platform to collaborate and promote event visibility across the organization through public and private group channels, as well as direct messaging.

JFrog Artifactory is the universal artifact repository manager powering the JFrog Platform’s binaries-driven formula for DevOps success. JFrog Xray is the universal software composition analysis (SCA) solution that enables DevSecOps teams to proactively identify open source vulnerabilities and license compliance violations before they manifest in production, and swiftly remediate across the entire application inventory.

With the JFrog app for Slack, teams can better collaborate on delivering quality releases, responding in real-time to DevOps events as they occur.
