Describe the enhancement requested

Currently, apache.jfrog.io is the only release channel for various Binary Artifacts of Apache Arrow. Therefore, if apache.jfrog.io stops serving, there will be no other channel to obtain Binary Artifacts. However, apache.jfrog.io does not provide stable service. The following is a list of multiple service outages in recent years.

#12686
#34675
#40744
#40759

Considering that this problem has occurred many times, it has seriously affected various downstream software that relies on Apache Arrow. Whether to consider adding at least one other release channel for the Binary Artifacts of Apache Arrow, such as GitHub Releases or downloads.apache.org to avoid apache.jfrog.io becoming the only release channel for Binary Artifacts. And provide alternatives for obtaining Binary Artifacts in the installation instructions, even if it may require more troublesome methods such as manual installation of DPKG.

The implementation of this measure can effectively reduce risks in the downstream software supply chain and avoid the risk that a single component cannot be installed, resulting in the entire software being unable to be installed, or even the software being unable to continue to work normally.
