VMware Harbor Registry – Part01

Let’s have a introduction to Harbor, in the upcoming posts we will setup the Harbor Registry

First, what is a container registry?

A container registry is a repository—or collection of repositories—used to store and access container images. Container registries can support container-based application development, often as part of DevOps processes. Container registries can connect directly to container orchestration platforms like Docker and Kubernetes. 

Harbor is an open source registry that secures artifacts with policies and role-based access control, ensures images are scanned and free from vulnerabilities, and signs images as trusted. Harbor, a CNCF Graduated project, delivers compliance, performance, and interoperability to help you consistently and securely manage artifacts across cloud native compute platforms like Kubernetes and Docker.

Harbor allows you to store and manage container images for your Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition deployment. Deploying an image registry alongside Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition improves image transfer speed.

As an enterprise private registry, Harbor also offers enhanced performance and improved security. By configuring Harbor with Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition, you can apply enterprise features to your image registry, such as security, identity, and management.

You can install Harbor alongside Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition on vSphere, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure.
