Component Lifecycle Best Practices
Staging
Use staging to separate your developer and production environments
Clear endpoints for each stage in the pipeline
Create a release candidate to test or discard before being promoted
Avoid dependencies on non-production artifacts
Promotion workflow is driven by CI
Clean up fast based on artifact lifecycle

Tagging
Use tagging to attach metadata to your components
Keep build metadata for release artifacts
include a link to the application scan report from Nexus Lifecycle
include a link to the software bill of materials (SBOM) with your builds
Use the Admin - Cleanup tags task to clean up unused tags
remove aged or unused tags
Use a standard naming scheme to avoid duplicating tags
prevent naming collisions and interruptions to CI pipeline workflows.
