Thanks for the work on Garage :) I am using it with Docker.

The problem I have is that Docker Hub is severely rate-limiting requests these days, and that impacts being able to pull Garage too. They rate-limit based on IPs (especially bad for those of us behind a carrier-grade NAT) and have strict limits on cloud providers too.

Could you please create a mirror of the Docker images somewhere else? A popular option is GitHub Container Registry, but anywhere else could work!

Thanks for sharing this issue with us, we will see what we can do :-)
We could directly host a repository on Garage but it could be too resource intensive for us. We could also host our image on Github but we would prefer promoting independant hosting services.

@quentin thanks for the quick response.

I know some project mirror their images to Quay.io (owned by Red Hat / IBM so not exactly independent either).

I did some tests with framagit.org but they deactivated the container registry features some months ago: https://framacolibri.org/t/plus-de-repos-sur-framagit/14321

We might ask tedomum.net if it's ok to use their Gitlab container registry but they plan to migrate to a similar infrastructure as ours, so if it's a problem for us, it will be a problem for them in the future.

We can try to host directly our Garage Docker image, after all, we are already hosting the raw binary. If we do that, I think we should add some rate limiting (sorry ^^) because I am affraid of non-optimized CI and orchestrators that will pull our images every 10 seconds. On the positive side however, our image is very small as it contains only a compressed binary which results in a 19MB file.

I have started patching Docker's container registry to add some support for LDAP authentication here: https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/capitainerie
We could also add a rate limiting module here and finally deploy it.

What's your opinion about that @LX (and the others)?

Does this work? Apparently it does now... I got a 500 error trying to leave a comment or create a new issue. Anyway, I have a mirror of the dxflrs Docker Hub if anyone wants to use it. Just add registry.bottled.codes as the registry. Interestingly, the backing storage is garage ;)

SUSE runs free Open Build service (https://build.opensuse.org/), part of which is a registry of containers build by this service (https://registry.opensuse.org/cgi-bin/cooverview).

In "Home"" section, you can see images created by individual users. In section "Official" are images for their new linux distro called MicroOS (https://microos.opensuse.org/).

This can be considered as a good alternative for Docker Hub.

MicroOS+garage looks very interesting and I plan to try it out.
