# Notary Server
Notary Server manages TUF data. It may be configured to use either JWT
or HTTP Basic Auth for authentication. Currently it only supports MySQL
for store of the TUF data, we intend to expand this to other storage
options.
Notary Server manages TUF data over an HTTP API compatible with the
[notary client](../notary/). The API is defined as part of the [distribution
specification](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/api.md)
as it is intended to be used side by side with a docker registry and
the URL paths are designed to be compatible with the existing registry
URL structure.
