Benefits

Ease of use

Create an image repository with no need to manually build and maintain the images. Once set up, pull and push container images across multiple regions reliably and at speed.

Security

Permission management. Container Registry provides an all-in-one management system for image permissions, so teams can share images securely without exposing them beyond intended boundaries.

Vulnerability scanning. The built-in image scanning feature detects vulnerabilities in your images and reports them with severity levels, giving you a clear picture of risk before deployment.

Encryption at rest. By default, images in Container Registry Enterprise Edition are automatically encrypted after upload to Object Storage Service (OSS) buckets, using AES-256 server-side encryption. For details, see Server-side encryption.

Seamless integration with other Alibaba Cloud services

Container Registry integrates with Container Service to automatically redeploy applications when new images are available, keeping your deployment pipeline up to date without manual steps.

It also integrates with Alibaba Cloud Code to automatically build images after you compile and test your application source code, so your CI/CD workflow stays connected end to end.
