Run your own registry.

This also applies to any package manager repository you might be using.

JFrog charges loads of money for Artifactory, btw

There are plenty of open source registry implementations though, including just running "distribution" from Docker.

The format is not hard to implement either for basic storage.

Reposilite is a nice and easily deployed alternative.

The point is Artifactory has basically all popular (and some not very popular) repository format support built-in while supporting serious traffic, sharding, replication, etc. so you don't have to hunt for and then maintain anything. They've got a good tool, it's just expensive.
