A target is a set of regular expressions to match on a path (in the same way as the route rules work). Access the management interface via the Repository Tragets menu item in the left hand Views/Repositories menu.
Repository targets allow you to define for example a target called Apache Maven which is "/org/apache/maven/.*". You can then add a new privilege that relates to the target and controls the CRUD operations for artifacts matching that path (the privilege can span multiple repositories if you want). You could thus delegate all control of org.apache.maven targets to a "Maven" team. In this way, you don’t need to create separate repositories for each logical division of your artifacts.
