Containerization Registries and Tools

CNI (Container Network Interface)

• calico: Calico is a networking and security solution that enables Kubernetes workloads and non-Kubernetes/legacy workloads to communicate seamlessly and securely.
• cilium : Cilium is an open source, cloud native solution for providing, securing, and observing network connectivity between workloads, fueled by the revolutionary Kernel technology eBPF 🌟 (Recommended)
• cni : Container Network Interface - networking for Linux containers. Website
• flannel : A network fabric for containers, designed for Kubernetes

Containerization Items

• crane: A tool for interacting with remote images and registries
• dive : A tool for exploring each layer in a docker image 🌟 (Recommended)

OCI (Open Container Initiative)

Info

The OCI currently contains three specifications: the Runtime Specification (runtime-spec), the Image Specification (image-spec) and the Distribution Specification (distribution-spec). The Runtime Specification outlines how to run a “filesystem bundle” that is unpacked on disk. At a high-level an OCI implementation would download an OCI Image then unpack that image into an OCI Runtime filesystem bundle. At this point the OCI Runtime Bundle would be run by an OCI Runtime.

Official Website: Link

• buildah : A tool that facilitates building OCI images.
• kaniko: Build Container Images In Kubernetes
• podman : A tool for managing OCI containers and pods.
• runc : CLI tool for spawning and running containers according to the OCI specification

Selfhosted Container Registry

• harbor: An open source trusted cloud native registry project that stores, signs, and scans content 🌟 (Recommended)
• nixery: Container registry which transparently builds images using the Nix package manager
