Sonatype Inc.

Sonatype was founded in 2008 and immediately started on its path to success with its concept of open-source software, an approach which was gaining popularity at the time. Today, Sonatype declares its mission as being “to enable better, more secure software innovation with solutions that are essential to developers.” The integrated open-source governance platform (Nexus) enables innovations to be implemented more quickly, while simultaneously increasing the application security.

With Nexus, a tool for managing internal and external repositories, Sonatype provides a central and automated platform for secure collaboration. When it comes to professional software development, the use of a central artifact repository and a powerful repository manager is indispensable. In the enterprise environment, there are nearly always requirements in the areas of authentication/authorization, distributed development and provider support, which are easily met by using Sonatype Nexus.
