MySQL for Artifactory

Use MySQL as the external database for JFrog Artifactory to leverage MySQL infrastructure features such as backup, restore, and replication.

MySQL provides infrastructure features such as backup and restore.

To run Artifactory with MySQL, create a dedicated MySQL database instance and then configure Artifactory to use it as described in the following sections.

⚠️

Enable Non-PostgreSQL Database

From Artifactory 7.84, Artifactory installations support only PostgreSQL by default. Artifactory will not start after installation unless you configure the system.yaml file to support your non-PostgreSQL database.

For more information on configuring the system.yaml after installation, see Configure Artifactory to use MySQL.
