We are currently mirroring the repo 12 times a day for the Americas bucket and 4 times to EU & Asia.

The mirror is created using the [Storage Transfer Service](https://cloud.google.com/storage/transfer/).  It
is currently hosted in a [Google Cloud Storage](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/storage-classes#multi-regional)
Multi-Regional storage bucket in the US.

This mirror does not have a webserver frontend.  To query / list objects, please use a `prefix` with
a `delimiter` (Example - all artifacts under maven2/com/google/cloud/):

```
https://maven-central.storage-download.googleapis.com/?prefix=maven2/com/google/cloud/&delimiter=/
```
