Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Registry

What Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Registry is

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Container Registry is an Oracle-managed service for storing, sharing, and managing container images. It supports Docker V2 APIs and the standard Docker command-line interface for pushing and pulling, as well as OCI-compliant images, multi-architecture manifest lists, and Helm charts. Repositories can be private or public; public repositories let anyone with the repository URL pull images. Oracle lists integrations with Kubernetes Engine, IAM, Visual Builder Studio, and third-party developer and DevOps tools, including Jenkins and GitLab for CI/CD. Retention policies can remove old Docker images automatically. Security features include end-to-end SSL encryption, Docker Registry V2 token authentication, and image signing with an asymmetric key from OCI Vault. Same-region OCI resources can access the registry through a service gateway without public internet exposure. Access is available through the Console, REST API, and OCI CLI. Each enabled region allows up to 500 repositories using 500 GB total, with up to 100,000 images per repository; Oracle says to contact it for more storage. The registry is included for customers with an OCI subscription, while underlying Object Storage requests and storage are charged at listed rates.
