Operating Systems - End of Support

As part of JFrog's commitment to maintain the security and reliability of the JFrog Platform, Artifactory will officially run with Node.js 20.x on all installation types from Artifactory 7.77.3.

Node.js 20.x provided with Linux Archive/Debian/RPM installations (non-containerized distributions) is not supported on the following operating systems:

Hence, starting from Artifactory version 7.77.3, the above-listed operating systems will no longer be supported.

Similarly, starting from Artifactory version 7.104.x, Debian 10.x will not be supported as it has reached End of Standard Support on 30 Jun, 2024.

Feature Enhancements

  • npm Package Type added for Cold Storage Archiving

    It is now possible to archive npm packages in Cold Storage. For more information on archiving in Cold Storage, see Working with Cold Storage.Working with Cold Storage

  • Advisory locks for PostgreSQL

    Self-hosted Artifactory users with PostgreSQL now have the option of using a database locking mechanism based on advisory locks instead of the previous mechanism, which is based on distributed table locks. Advisory locks help reduce the problem of database table bloating, which increases database storage consumption and has been known, in some cases, to overload the database server CPU and increase the duration of lock/unlock operations. For more information, see Configure Artifactory to Use Advisory Locks in PostgreSQL.Configure Artifactory to Use Advisory Locks in PostgreSQL

  • Automatic Association of Groups for SAML Users in Identity Tokens

    When you create an identity token for a SAML user, all the groups associated with the user in the SAML configuration are included in the token scope.
