Better together
Dropbox + Cloudsmith
Dropbox pioneered cloud collaboration—now it’s about scaling artifact delivery and security to match that vision. Cloudsmith helps Dropbox move faster and stay secure with a fully cloud-native platform built for modern engineering.
Why Cloudsmith
The Challenge: Building Fast and Secure — Globally
Dropbox teams face increasing complexity as they scale. Globally distributed developers need reliable artifact distribution that performs consistently, no matter where they are. Legacy systems and infrastructure sprawl are slowing down developer velocity, creating unnecessary friction in the build and release process. As CI/CD practices mature, there’s a growing need for a platform that can scale with cloud-native workflows. And in a security-conscious environment, compliance and vulnerability scanning can’t be afterthoughts — they need to be built-in from the start. Cloudsmith can help.
Centralize and secure all your artifacts
Unify public and private packages across teams and toolchains into a single, secure, cloud-native repository. Fine-grained access controls and automated policy enforcement make security frictionless — and ensure Dropbox’s engineering teams move fast without compromise.
Streamline global software delivery
Our fully managed global Package Delivery Network (PDN) accelerates artifact delivery to teams and systems around the world. No edge optimization or infrastructure tuning required — just fast, reliable performance, wherever your engineers are.
Support Modern DevOps and CI/CD
Cloudsmith is built for cloud-native workflows and modern DevOps pipelines. Automate everything — from publishing to promotion — while maintaining compliance with OPA-based policy enforcement and SBOM generation. Build, test, release: faster and safer.
Scale seamlessly with simplicity
Reduce tool sprawl and unify artifact storage across teams, geographies, and acquisitions. As Dropbox continues to grow and integrate new capabilities, Cloudsmith provides a foundation for scalable, maintainable, and secure software delivery.
