| Interface | rest, oci, cli rest (pulpcore REST API), plus repository endpoints for rpm/deb/python/container/generic; also ships OCI images of itself |
|---|
| Tooling | pulpcore REST API + pulp-cli, plus podman/docker for the container deploy and standard package clients against published repos. Documented at pulpproject.org/pulpcore/docs/. It is also the backend Fedora COPR uses, which is a working-scale endorsement. |
|---|
| Composes with | Same self-hosted arithmetic: unlimited instances × your disk. Notably it is the engine under COPR's Pulp backend, so its per-repo retention setting (retain_package_versions) is the lever that makes 'unlimited' repos actually behave like storage. |

| Reliability | Very reliable (Red Hat-backed, used by COPR); the cost is operational complexity, not data loss. |
