Relevant Versions: Artifactory 5 & 6.

When integrating Artifactory with a cloud binary provider such as S3, based on the documentation there are 2 possible chain templates to select from: the “s3”, and “cluster-s3” chain templates. Here we will focus on the differences, and how one should choose the right configuration to use.

*This article focuses on S3 as an example, while the mentioned information is also relevant for differences between “google-storage” & “cluster-google-storage”, and “azure-blob-storage” & “cluster-azure-blob-storage”.
