Is there any benefit to setting up two Artifactory instances - one for the
ISO repository storage and another for the smaller artifacts - or is that
overkill? (I suppose it would depend on the size of the ISO repository?)
At the moment I have just done a basic install on Ubuntu. Plan on moving it
to use JBoss with MySQL database.
I will set up initially with the filesystem-mysql and utilise some virtual
repositories and take a look at the YUM repositories.
Thanks for your advice
Pete
