Artifact and container registries

Private container registries and repository managers for images, Helm charts and language packages: when and how teams replace Docker Hub, JFrog Artifactory and Sonatype Nexus Repository with self-hosted Harbor for OCI content and Pulp for multi-format packages.

Docker Hub

Docker Hub is Docker's hosted public and private container registry, sold through Docker subscriptions with pull rate limits on free use; these pages cover replacing or fronting it with a self-hosted Harbor registry.

JFrog Artifactory

JFrog Artifactory is a commercial universal repository manager sold as JFrog SaaS and as self-managed Pro X, Enterprise X and Enterprise+ subscriptions; these pages cover replacing it with self-hosted Harbor for containers and Helm charts and Pulp for multi-format packages.

Sonatype Nexus Repository

Sonatype Nexus Repository is a repository manager sold as Pro, Pro+ and Enterprise, with a free Community Edition capped by usage limits; these pages cover replacing it with self-hosted Pulp for packages and Harbor for container images.

Amazon ECR

Amazon Elastic Container Registry is AWS's managed container registry, billed for storage and data transfer; these pages cover running a self-hosted Harbor registry instead, for hybrid, multi-cloud or on-premises estates.
