Ruby Upstream Caching and Proxying Now Available

May 31 2022

We're very pleased to announce that Ruby is the latest package format to support upstream caching and proxying.

This feature is currently in Invitational Beta. If you are interested in being an early tester, email us at support@cloudsmith.com and we’ll get you access.

With upstream proxying, Cloudsmith will allow Ruby clients configured to use your repository to see and download your existing repository packages, as well as all those defined in any connected upstream repositories.

When upstream caching is turned on, fetches made for packages resolved to an upstream can be cached and synchronised to your Cloudsmith repository - helping to protect your software dependencies from outages, improve visibility, and apply fine-grained access controls for your teams, customers and users.

This enables you to use Cloudsmith as a first-class cache and a central source of truth for packages, to protect you from outages of external services.
