Docker Hub

$$ Midfrom $9/mo · Last reviewed May 2026

Docker Hub is Docker's hosted registry for storing, sharing, and distributing OCI-compliant container images across public and private repositories. It targets developers distributing containerized software and serves as the default public container registry. It includes vulnerability scanning via Docker Scout and supports public repositories, but is a hosted service rather than self-hostable. A free Personal plan covers public repos and limited private storage, subject to pull-rate limits, with paid Pro and Team plans above it. It holds SOC 2 compliance and sits in the mid pricing tier.
