Subscription Information

This feature is supported on the Cloud (SaaS) platform with an Enterprise+ license, and on the Self-Hosted platform with an Enterprise X or Enterprise+ license.

Overview

JFrog Mission Control is designed to be your single access point for managing multiple JFrog Platform Deployments (JPDs). It lets you view all JPDs under your administrative control whether they are installed on your own site, or at geographically remote sites around the world. You can see the connections between them, perform operations on several instances at once, or drill down to view and configure a single instance at a time.

Mission Control is Moving to Artifactory as a Service

From JFrog Artifactory version 7.27.3, Mission Control has been integrated directly into Artifactory as a microservice. You no longer need to install Mission Control to use the features it provides.

The metrics capabilities that were provided Mission Control will now be provided through JFrog Insight. To learn more about how to install Insight, see Installing Insight.Installing Insight

To learn more about how Mission Control has been integrated into Artifactory, see Migrating Platform Deployments and License Buckets.Migrating Platform Deployments and License Buckets

However, you can continue to use the standalone Mission Control service until the end-of-life. Standalone Mission Control will continue to receive critical fixes and security updates.

Main Features and Functionality

Managing Platform Deployments

You can register, manage, monitor and gain visibility on all your installed JFrog Platform Deployments (JPDs) and the installed services according to geographic locations in the JFrog Platform. The monitored services are Artifactory, Xray and Distribution. Start by registering your JPDs in the JFrog Platform. For more information, see Managing Platform Deployments.System ArchitectureManage Platform Deployments

Access Federation

Requires an Enterprise+ license.

Access Federation gives you control over access to all, or any subset of your services from one location by synchronising all security entities (users, groups, permissions and access tokens) between the federated services. Once access federation has been set up, you can manage all security entities in the federated services from one place. For more information, see Access Federation.Access Federation

Dedicated JPD Health and Status Dashboard

The Topology Dashboard displays your registered JPDs across geographical areas in a map view with a set of indicators providing insight into the health of your services running on each JPD. You can view the status of your Access Federation and Replication in the map view and information about each of your Registered JPDs in the JFrog Platform.Manage Platform Deployments
