| Free tier | At least 50 GB of artifact data + 200 GB of package delivery per month, free, pooled across ALL open-source repositories in one org — 'You get at least 50GB of artifact data + 200GB of package delivery for free, across all open-source repositories.' Available on the $0 Core plan, no special plan needed. unit GB; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | 5 GB maximum per file (5000000000 bytes) |
| Retention | not stated |
| Egress | 200 GB/month of 'package delivery' included, then metered (Core has no overage path at all: 'Additional data: N/A'; the settings cap is '200% of plan'). Delivery counts only outgoing bytes, partial downloads prorated, requests not charged. free_allowance: 200 GB per month |
| Identity | institution derived from the record's prose, not from an identity field, and no signup was executed: no special plan needed. Real hosted CDN with a real CLI/API; the risk is administrative, not technical — OSS repos that fail the eligibility rules (no attribution, minor fork) get |
| Limits |
5 GB maximum per file ('the current maximum file size is 5GB'); 50 GB total artifact data and 200 GB/mo delivery per org; artifact data billed as a high-water mark within the billing period (upload-then-delete does not refund); 28+ formats plus arbitrary raw files; OSS repos must carry an SPDX licence, a project URL and a Cloudsmith attribution badge. |
| Binding | per-object-cap the per-object cap sets the shard size and therefore the object count; it bounds the total more tightly than any headline quota |
| Interface | rest, cli rest (Cloudsmith REST API + CLI), plus every native package client: apt/yum/npm/pypi/nuget/helm/docker/raw; public broadcast URLs on dl.cloudsmith.io |
| Tooling | cloudsmith-cli (cloudsmith push raw OWNER/REPO FILE), REST API v1, Terraform provider, officially documented; anonymous pulls need no token (probe below). |
| Composes with | Usage is pooled per org, not per repo — so the multiplier is orgs, not repos: unlimited free signups × 50 GB + 200 GB/mo. OSS status is granted automatically at repo creation ('We don't require advance permission to create open-source repositories'), with post-hoc checks; sponsorship raises the allowance for large projects. |
| Reliability | Real hosted CDN with a real CLI/API; the risk is administrative, not technical — OSS repos that fail the eligibility rules (no attribution, minor fork) get suspended, and the free Core plan cannot pay overage so it hard-stops at the cap. |
| Notes | At least 50 GB of artifact data + 200 GB of package delivery per month, free, pooled across ALL open-source repositories in one org — 'You get at least 50GB of artifact data + 200GB of package delivery for free, across all open-source repositories.'
