Definitions

  1. Image – immutable detached content that is means for instantiating a container
  2. registry – an endpoint that can serve information named images, within a namespace.
  3. image namespace – the owner scope of an image
  4. namespace identity – cryptographically safe identity or fingerprint for an image namespace

Requirements

  • definition of a registry as an endpoint for identity of a requested image’s namespace
  • detached validating of the identity of an image’s namespace
  • sane default registry of the docker hub
  • configurable priority of registries (to solve conflict in image namespace)
