I like using Artifactory for this, you keep a local copy of all NPM / nuget / etc dependencies hosted next to your build infrastructure. What shocked me most about NPM is that it used to have absolutely 0 verification built in, yet it was being heavily promoted by very well known, educated and experienced tech celebs. All at a time when it was basically a hobby toy.

Last time I tried to use Artifactory for it's caching it barely worked. Would randomly 404 when a package was not in it's cache yet and you'd end up retrying a CI build for a while until everything was there.

  At work I'm running ~2000 builds a day across 14 repos, mix of c# and php. We're proxying several hundred NPM, composer and nuget packages on 2 artifactory containers running in high availability. It was a rocky start but about 2 months in everything was pretty stable. If you're still apposed to artifactory you could try sonatype nexus
