harbor

Harbor is a trusted cloud-native registry that extends the open-source Docker Distribution by adding enterprise-grade management, security, and identity features. It is designed to be deployed close to build and run environments to improve image transfer efficiency. Key capabilities include: - Registry Support: Stores and manages both container images and Helm charts. - Security & Compliance: Provides vulnerability scanning for images, content signing, and activity auditing logs. - Access Control: Implements role-based access control (RBAC) through 'projects' and integrates with LDAP/AD and OpenID Connect (OIDC) for authentication. - Replication: Supports policy-based synchronization of images and charts between multiple registry instances to facilitate high availability and multi-datacenter deployments. - Maintenance Tools: Includes image deletion and garbage collection to reclaim storage space. - Management Interface: Offers a graphical user portal for browsing and searching repositories, as well as a RESTful API with Swagger UI for programmatic integration. - Deployment Options: Can be deployed via Docker Compose, Helm Charts, or a Harbor Operator.
