Câu trả lời What’s the difference between a repository and a registry?
The difference between a Docker repository and a Docker registry can be summarized as follows:
Docker Repository
Definition: A Docker repository is a collection of related Docker images that share the same name but are differentiated by tags. Each tag represents a different version of the image.
Function: Repositories are used to store and manage different versions of a Docker image. For example, a repository might contain images tagged as latest, v1.0, v2.0, etc.
Example: If you have a repository named myapp, it might contain images like myapp:latest, myapp:v1.0, and myapp:v2.0[1][2][3][5].
Docker Registry
Definition: A Docker registry is a service that stores Docker repositories. It is essentially a collection of repositories.
Function: Registries are used to host and distribute Docker images. They can be public or private and can be hosted by third parties or on-premises.
Example: Docker Hub, Google Container Registry, and Azure Container Registry are examples of Docker registries. These registries contain multiple repositories, each holding different versions of Docker images[1][2][3][4][5].
