Components

Mirantis Secure Registry (MSR) is a containerized application that runs on a Kubernetes cluster. After deploying MSR, you can use your Docker CLI client to log in, push images, and pull images. For high availability, you can horizontally scale your MSR workloads across multiple Kubernetes worker nodes.

Workloads

Descriptions for each of the workloads that MSR creates during installation are available in the table below.

Caution

Do not use these components in your applications, as they are for internal MSR use only.
