# Anaconda Cloud

## What is Anaconda Cloud?

Anaconda Cloud is a package management service that makes it easy to find, access, store and share public and private notebooks, environments, and conda and PyPI packages, and to keep up with updates made to the packages and environments you’re using. Anaconda Cloud is Continuum Analytics’ Anaconda repository made available to the public. Anaconda repository is also available for purchase by companies that wish to power their own internal private Anaconda Cloud. More info at Anaconda subscriptions.

This documentation covers how to use both the public Anaconda Cloud and private Anaconda Repository.

You can build new packages using the Anaconda Client command line interface (CLI), then manually or automatically upload the packages to Anaconda Cloud to quickly share with others or access yourself from anywhere.

To take advantage of Anaconda Cloud, you’ll first want to:

- Download Anaconda.
- Get familiar with using conda. A good place to start is the conda cheat sheet and the conda test drive.

For developers, Anaconda Cloud is designed to make software development, release, and maintenance easy by providing broad package management support. Anaconda Cloud allows for both free public and paid private package repositories, as well as package channels, providing a flexible and scalable service for groups and organizations of all sizes. Anaconda Cloud is a Continuum Analytics product.

Hosting of freely available packages will always remain free for individuals and organizations hosting up to 3GB of packages. There is a small fee for hosting of private packages or more than 3GB of packages. For more information, please see our plan options.
