Why Cloudsmith

## 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 Acme'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.

| Your current solution | With Cloudsmith |

| --- | --- |

| High Maintenance Overhead - Self-hosted solutions like Nexus and Artifactory require extensive setup and maintenance for scaling, redundancy, and performance. | Fully 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. |

| Unpredictable 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. | Transparent, Scalable Pricing - Simple, usage-based pricing that grows with you. Free up engineering time to focus on building, not budgeting. |

| Manual User Management - Onboarding new teams and users is a manual and non-programomatic, introducing operational and security risk and wasting valuable time. | Seamless 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. |

| Security 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. | Enterprise-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. |
