#28 How to choose a container registry?

Amazon ECR vs. Docker Hub vs. GitHub Container Registry Newsletter

Every week, we write about all things AWS. For example, we unbox or review new AWS services. We also share pitfalls that we learned about the hard way ourselves. On top of that, we provide code examples for Infrastructure as Code and Serverless applications.

Notes

Don't miss the our blog post Amazon ECR vs. Docker Hub vs. GitHub Container Registry, the written version of this podcast episode.

Special thanks to Michael Hausenblas, Product Developer Advocate at AWS, for joining us for this podcast episode.

Have you worked with a Linux package manager like apt or yum before? A container registry is similar, but instead of packages, it distributes container images. A container registry is a crucial aspect of a containerized workflow and infrastructure. This episode compares three different container registries:

• Amazon ECR
• Docker Hub
• GitHub Container Registry

Links that we mentioned in the podcast episode.

• AWS Container Roadmap filtered by ECR
• Introducing multi-architecture container images for Amazon ECR
• OCI Artifact Support In Amazon ECR
• Quay.io - RedHat's container registry
• JFrog Artifactory - Another container registry

Please help Michael Hausenblas to better understand the current state of container security! Take the AWS container security survey 2020.
