Did you just discover how registries works or something? Docker hub is just a public registry, anyone can have their own private registry and it is what everybody usually does when you want your own kubernetes. Harbor is the usual free/opensource usually you use, or you can use the simple one that docker provides and run it locally. Also they are other public registries like quay.io or the GitHub one.
- MattJ100 4y agoI think you misunderstood the article. This is not about running a private registry. Running a public registry (e.g. for an open-source project) exposes you to bandwidth costs and such. The solution in the article allows such projects to use their own domain without incurring any of the maintenance burden of running a public registry. One of the problems for open-source projects currently is that any move (even to another provider) causes a lot of disruption, because all users of the project need to update the address they pull from. This solves that.
- tyingq 4y ago>Did you just discover how registries works or something? That feels a bit snarky. The article opens with that path, but concludes it's heavier than they want. Then suggests an option that's lighter/thinner and meets their needs.
