Hi Krishanthan, We have to fix this. Here is the propose way for fixing this. We can generate a key(token) when user subscribe to cartridge. (this only valid for framework cartridge, which need to give artifact repository. e.g: git repo url ). This key return to user after subscribe. We should have REST endpoint to get artifact update notifications. User can create post commit hook from their git server (e.g github ..etc), and call above REST endpoint giving above mention key as token. This will verify with subscription token and pass ADC to take action for artifact update. It will create depsync message and send to instance notifier, which subscribe by Stratos agent, which reside in instance and update the artifacts. There is no poling, it will trigger on demand.
