Distribution 2.4.0

JFrog SaaS supports Hybrid Distribution allowing you to distribute your Release Bundles from Artifactory Cloud to multiple Cloud and Self-hosted Edge nodes within the same organisation. Hybrid Cloud promotes scalability and flexibility allowing you to distribute sensitive and highly regulated and mission critical Release Bundles to Artifactory Self-hosted edges while using the Artifactory Cloud for mainstream public distributions and thereby gaining significant cost savings. For more information, see Hybrid Distribution.Hybrid Distribution from the JFrog Platform on the Cloud

You can now install JFrog Distribution using a Linux Archive installer in addition to the existing options giving more control over how to set up your environment. For more information, see Manual Linux Archive Installation.Installing Distribution

The automatic propagation of signed public GPG Keys to the Artifactory source and edge nodes is now an integral part of the upload process of the GPG keys to Distribution. To support this, the Upload and Propagate GPG Signing Keys for Distribution REST API has been introduced and replaces the Upload GPG Signing Key for Distribution REST API command that is now deprecated from version Distribution version 2.4. For more information, see GPG Signing.Upload and Propagate GPG Signing Keys for DistributionUpload GPG Signing Key for DistributionGPG Signing
