Broadcom Automic Automation vs. JFrog Artifactory

This product has huge capacity to run millions of jobs per month, can serve to enterprise level of business. If client is looking for platform base solution which can be deployed on-prem or cloud base technologies then this solution works well. It has very good licensing mechanism which is based on number of agents, and there is no limitation of number of jobs run. So client has not to worry on limitation of jobs and can scale of the automation in the environment. This reduced the total cost of ownership of product. Self service automation feature can reduce the client automation cost significantly. it has good batch job coverages from Mainframe to Microservices.

It works at scale and a large number of accessible pipelines for searching, repository updates and indexing will become easier. JFrog provides end-to-end solutions for all DevOps needs. With this, Jfrog Artifactory specifically implements the management of highly available repositories, with a smooth interface and integration with all the main CI tools on the market.

• Wide range of internal functions
• Many interfaces (incoming and outgoing)
• Modern, web-based user interface
• Strong roadmap with topics such as containerisation and AI
• High throughput possible (> 1 million executions per day)

• Artifactory Management acting as a repository manager of docker images, application and component dependencies
• Automate pipelines and thereby releasing changes faster
• Supports high availability and scalability with multi site replication

Incentivized

• Could improve the framework.
• Could improve the underlying coding standards.

Incentivized

• We can always use support for more different types of packages in Artifactory.
• We also would like to see the Artifactory X-Ray produce continue to mature.

Automic is a very strong Automation Platform which enable us to implement user requirements quickly.

The main problem that seems intractable is getting the checksum of the artifact. Managing container artifacts is a game changer for us during project execution, as the container artifact type exposes all base image and Docker file steps. This makes debugging or analysis easier. Jfrog Artifactory provides promotion feature and can automated from one environment repo to another environment repo before the deployment occurs.

Support tickets take days to respond. The most basic of questions that should be knocked out in a few hours don't get answers for days. Tickets are also closed without resolution.

1. Cost was the major factor without compromising the automation service which this product delivered. Other products are expensive and deliver the same outcome. 2. Limitation of job run, Broadcom Automic Automation allows to run unlimited jobs and helps to increase automation capability. 3. Number of automation packs available with no extra license cost. 4. Depth of coverage of technologies for batch job automation. 5. Required less number of hardware to achieve high availability.

JFrog Artifactory has a much more friendly GUI, making package exploration less of a chore to do. Other than that, their features are pretty much comparable to each other. Both support multiple types of packages; both have API that can integrate well with CI/CD pipelines.

• Improved SAP automation thereby giving good returns.
• Provides mail integration which further widens automation scope and profits.

• So many times it happens at the time of dependency resolution some of the servers are down e.g NPM, Maven central, PiPy in that cause our builds starts failing. By proxying these repositories with JFrog this is never happened again.
• It reduced the additional cost of container image registry and management effort.
• Support of integration with Build, Monitoring, and CI tools resulted in smooth automation and management.
