Every artifact your teams ship, assembled right the first time
GitLab announced Artifact Central, an organization-level registry in beta that replaces project-level package and container registries. Retention rules, storage quotas and publish or pull access are set once at the organization level, with four artifact-specific roles (Admin, Manager, Contributor, Viewer). The beta supports Maven, npm, Docker and OCI, and is available on GitLab.com with Self-Managed availability planned, at no charge during the beta.
What changes for platform teams
Platform teams could set artifact storage, quota and access policy in one place instead of per project, and use one hosted, remote or virtual URL for internal and external packages. Existing registries can be added as remotes and converted to hosted repos gradually, so no bulk migration is required.
