Cache frequently used Maven packages using the Gitlab Dependency Proxy
Problem to solve
A similar proxy layer to https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7934 should be created for Maven packages as part of our MVC efforts for &486 (closed)
Target audience
Further details
This could possibly be implemented in pieces:
- Add proxy ability to connect to and pull from maven's standard public open source registry
- Add caching ability to store the pulled packages in object storage or other location
- Determine which private registries are most popular and iterate to authenticate and connect to them one at a time.
Proposal
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
