Modern Artifact Management for a Modern Financial Ecosystem
Square is on a mission to democratize financial tools. Cloudsmith is here to ensure your platform and developers have what they need to move fast — without compromising security or control.
Global Reach With Zero Operational Overhead
Your development teams span the globe — your artifact delivery should, too. Cloudsmith’s unique global Package Delivery Network (PDN) ensures high-performance access to artifacts no matter the region. Our fully managed cloud-native platform eliminates the need for self-hosted solutions, reducing maintenance overhead and boosting productivity.
Simplify Infrastructure and Eliminate Tool Sprawl
Managing multiple artifact solutions across business units introduces friction and risk. Cloudsmith helps consolidate and centralize artifact management into a single source of truth — reducing duplication, simplifying governance, and enabling standardization across your developer ecosystem.
Accelerate M&A Integration
With continuous acquisitions fueling Square’s growth, speed of integration matters. Cloudsmith enables fast, secure onboarding of new teams and toolchains by providing a unified platform that scales with you and adapts to different developer environments — without requiring heavy lifting.
Built for Regulated Environments From Day One
Financial services demand more than just performance — they require trust. Cloudsmith provides built-in policy enforcement, quarantine, SBOM generation, and upstream controls to ensure you’re meeting internal security and compliance requirements across every team, project, and region.
How We Help:
Artifact management at Square Before and After Cloudsmith
CurrentlyHigh Maintenance Overhead - Self-hosted solutions like Nexus and Artifactory require extensive setup and maintenance for scaling, redundancy, and performance.
With CloudsmithFully Managed, Cloud-Native Platform - No servers to manage. No tuning. You never need to add or manage additional nodes, replicate databases. This is pure SaaS, optimized for global scale.
CurrentlyUnpredictable Pricing - Consumption-based subscription with extra charges for key features. Per-seat costs will also add up. Total cost of ownership may far exceed perceived dollar cost.
With CloudsmithTransparent, Scalable Pricing - Simple, usage-based pricing that grows with you. Free up engineering time to focus on building, not budgeting.
CurrentlyManual User Management - Onboarding new teams and users is a manual and non-programomatic, introducing operational and security risk and wasting valuable time.
With CloudsmithSeamless Onboarding - Leverage Open ID Connect (OIDC) and Terraform to automate and secure the onboarding of new teams and users, helping Square move towards a truly self-service model.
CurrentlySecurity as an add-on - Security is handled via separate products that aren't included with Nexus Repository. Products charge per-user seat license fees and have required dependencies.
With CloudsmithEnterprise-Grade Policy-as-Code - No add-ons. First-class support for Open Policy Agent and Rego ensures every artifact meets Square's compliance and governance needs.
If you're looking for someone who's not just going to be a vendor…but a long-term partner that’s invested in you, you're invested in them, and you’re going to figure out how to make each other better going forward, then that would be my high recommendation on why you should go with Cloudsmith.
