Container Registries

8 providers in this category.

Container registries store and distribute Docker/OCI images for build and deploy pipelines, public or private. Any team running containers needs a reliable, access-controlled home for images close to where they build and ship. Many registries add vulnerability scanning, image signing, and access controls to harden the supply chain. Weigh open-source versus managed delivery, self-hosting, and free-tier limits.
