Snap Store Proxy documentation
==============================

The **Snap Store Proxy** provides an on-premise edge proxy to the general
`Snap Store <https://snapcraft.io/store>`_ for your devices.

Devices are registered with the Proxy, and all communication with the Snap Store will
**flow through the Proxy**, thereby enabling network-restricted devices to access snaps.
Upstream snap **revisions can be overridden** on the Proxy, allowing fine-grained revision
control for your devices. The Proxy furthermore supports air-gapped deployments when
configured in **offline mode**.

The Proxy is an excellent fit for organisations looking for **more control
over updates** to their snaps, or for enterprises that have held back from adopting
snaps until now because of the challenges of operating within a **restricted
network**.

With the Snap Store Proxy, snaps are as easy-to-use as ever, and administrators
have much greater control over exactly what revisions are installed on each
connected system.
