Hi Matthew, Uploading java jars to nightlies.apache.org was implemented on the following PR: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/13328
>From what I remember the solution of uploading to nightlies.apache.org was to follow the same workflow as our R nightly builds. More info on when the R nightly builds were first implemented on this JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16400 I don't remember investigating the Apache Nexus snapshot repository when we added the Java jars. We followed the the same workflow we already had. Do you know if there is a technical reason for preferring the Nexus Snapshot Repository for JVM artifacts or is it for consistency with other projects?
