JFrog Container Registry vs STACKIT Container Registry

JFrog Container Registry (JCR) is a free, self-managed edition of JFrog Artifactory for container and Helm workflows. It provides local, remote and virtual repositories for Docker, OCI, Helm, Helm OCI and Generic packages. Remote repositories can proxy and cache external registries such as Docker Hub; virtual repositories make several local and remote repositories available through one URL. JCR includes role-based access control, fine-grained permissions for private registries, metadata search, searchable properties and Artifactory Query Language. It supports Helm repositories for Kubernetes deployments and the Docker, Helm and OCI clients used with Artifactory. Self-managed installation options include Linux and Windows archives, RPM, Debian, Docker, Docker Compose and Helm. The free edition does not include JFrog Xray, high availability, build promotion, user plugins, replication or federated repositories. The Pro plan is $50 a month plus tax, with actual monthly price scaling with consumption; it is available only through June 4th 2027. Enterprise X starts at $950 a month, while Enterprise + has custom pricing.
