Container Image Registry

Images are stored directly in kraud object storage instead of being pulled on each pod start. This behaves differently than kubernetes, which pulls images on every start.

Image objects are referenced by pods using their database id instead of name, which has the advantage that pods remain reproducable even if you upload a different image with the same name. However, the user experience is currently not the best, and it may be a bit confusing at times.

managing images

kra offers basic remote image managment, but docker cli might be required for some actions for now.

kra images ls

docker supports images natively, so the regular image commands work out of the box
