## What it is
Artifact Hub is a web-based application for finding, installing, and publishing Cloud Native packages such as Helm charts, OLM operators, Falco configurations, and policy bundles. It provides a unified catalog and search experience for artifacts across CNCF ecosystem projects.

## Use cases
- find helm charts for kubernetes
- search cloud native packages
- publish a helm chart to a public registry
- discover kubernetes operators and policies
- browse krew plugins and falco configs
- self-host a package catalog for kubernetes

## When to choose
- you need a central catalog of Helm charts, operators, and CNCF project artifacts
- you want to publish and distribute Kubernetes-related packages with metadata, security reports, and versioning
- you want a hosted or self-hosted discovery UI for cloud native configurations

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose package manager for OS or language libraries (npm, apt, pip)
- you only need a private OCI container registry without a discovery UI
- your packages are unrelated to cloud native / Kubernetes ecosystems

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: search-engine, package-manager, http-server, api-framework
- domain: cloud-computing, developer-tools, self-hosted
- platform: self-hosted, cloud
- tags: helm-charts, cncf, package-registry, cloud-native, typescript, go, containers, kubernetes, web-server, docker
