What are two roles of an artifact repository in a CI/CD pipeline? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is C. stores files needed and generated during the build process E. provides traceability, search, and management of binary files. An artifact repository (e.g., JFrog Artifactory, Nexus) serves two primary roles in CI/CD: storing build inputs and outputs (Choice C) - such as dependencies, compiled binaries, Docker images, and build artifacts - and providing governance features like traceability…

Explanation

An artifact repository (e.g., JFrog Artifactory, Nexus) serves two primary roles in CI/CD: storing build inputs and outputs (Choice C) - such as dependencies, compiled binaries, Docker images, and build artifacts - and providing governance features like traceability, versioning, search, and binary file management (Choice E). Choice A is incorrect; artifact repositories are not specific to public cloud infrastructure. Choice B is incorrect; while artifact repos can host open source packages, managing OSS licensing is not their defining role. Choice D describes a version control system (like Git), not an artifact repository - VCS handles source code, while artifact repos handle compiled binaries.
