You can mirror all the external repositories with Artifactory by using
"mirror-any"
feature of maven's
settings.xml<http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Configuring+Artifacts+Resolution#ConfiguringArtifactsResolution-Additional%22Mirror-any%22Setup>although
we recommend against it. Configuring virtual
repository with poms
cleanup<http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Virtual+Repositories#VirtualRepositories-pomcleanup>is
the preferred way to ensure Artifactory is your sole artifacts
provider.

We have two MySQL storage options - pure database (when the artifacts are
stored as BLOBs in database) and filesystem-mysql (when the artifacts are
stored on the disk, while the metadata and configuration are stored in the
database).
The procedure of changing the storage is described
here<http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Changing+the+Default+Storage>
