Nexus 2.x - Release Notes

Nexus is a Repository Manager for Maven, NuGet, Docker registries and other binary artifact repositories. Repository managers serve two purposes: they act as highly configurable proxies between your organization and the public repositories and they also provide an organization with a deployment destination for your internally generated artifacts.

Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager 2.x Distributions.

There are several Nexus distributions published by Sonatype.

  • Nexus OSS: This version contains basic features and is based on our Open Source Software (OSS) code. Some features distributed with this bundle are not open source, but are offered by Sonatype for free use under our license terms.

  • Nexus Pro: This is our flagship repository manager distribution with all of our advanced features. A valid license is required to use advanced features.

  • Nexus Pro Trial: This distribution is delivered as a platform specific executable file and uses a different install process than regular Nexus Professional bundles. It does not include all pro features and is optimized to introduce Nexus to first time users and for trialling key professional features. More information is available about the differences.
