What our engineers handle on Nexus Repository
This is the hands-on work, done by a person: the jobs the automatic tools cannot do for you.

- 2Create cleanup policies and compact blob stores on a schedule
- 3Secure access with roles, tokens and TLS
- 4Back up the database and blob stores and plan upgrades
Problems we fix
Problem
The blob store keeps growing
What we do
We set cleanup policies and compaction tasks, then confirm space is actually released.
Problem
Builds cannot reach the repository
What we do
We check the URL, certificate and credentials used by the build tools and fix them.
Problem
Anonymous users can read private artefacts
What we do
We turn off anonymous access where it is not needed, tighten the roles and check which artefacts were readable.
Automatic tools, and our team for the rest
RootManage is automatic server management with every tool in one place. The tools run by themselves on a schedule and report to one dashboard. Everything they cannot do, and every emergency, is handled by our engineers by hand.
Automatic
RootManage tools, running by themselves
- Server Health agent reports load, disk use and failed login attempts to your dashboard.
- Metrics agent draws CPU, memory, disk and network charts, sampled every five minutes.
- Uptime checks check the server every minute and email you when it stops answering, and again when it recovers.
- Backup agent runs scheduled backups at 02:00 IST to storage we provide or to your own SFTP or S3 box, with help restoring.
Manual, by our engineers
Everything else, and every emergency
- Hands-on work. Fixes, tuning, migrations, upgrades and the other jobs listed above on this page.
- Emergency work. A hacked site, an outage or a failed update is handled by a person who investigates and fixes it, not by a script.
- Things we do not automate. Anything the tools do not cover is done by hand, over SSH, WHM or RDP, on a login you can remove at any time.
The tools are optional, run on Linux servers and are installed by you with one command each. Every job our team does is recorded as a task in your dashboard with the details, and you get an email when it is updated.
How it works
- 1
Sign up
Create an account, choose a plan and add the server you want managed.
- 2
Install the tools
Run one command per tool. They then work by themselves and report to your dashboard. For hands-on work you give us a login you can remove at any time.
- 3
Automatic, with people behind it
The tools watch, scan and back up automatically and alert you. Our engineers do the rest by hand and handle every emergency, and you follow each task in your dashboard.
Questions about Nexus Repository
Can Nexus proxy npm and Docker Hub?
Yes. Proxy repositories cache downloads and help with rate limits and outages of public registries.
Nexus or Artifactory?
Both are good. We run Nexus and help you decide if you are choosing between them.
What does it cost to have Nexus Repository managed?
Managed plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server, and Nexus Repository is managed as part of the server. The pricing page lists what each plan includes. If a server is already infected, the emergency cleanup is a one-time ₹9,000 job.
