Using Quay

Quay Accounts

Quay is a registry for storing and building container images. It is used extensively in the deployment of new Docker images within VIP. Both new and old Docker images are available via the Quay repository. To receive updated software (or Docker images) for your VIP system, registration is required.

For more information and for help setting up a Quay account, please see "Registering for Quay.io".

Quay Container Repository

All Telos Alliance Docker images are managed using the Quay registry. This allows the images that the containers run to be securely stored and updated so the latest images are always available.

To use Quay, the Quay.io container registry must be enabled within Docker. On the left menu list within the Docker window, click on “Registries”.
