Registries
Palette supports different types of registries that you can add to the platform and use in your cluster profiles. You can add the following types of registries to Palette:
-
Open Container Initiative (OCI) Registries
-
Helm Registries
-
Legacy Pack Registries
We recommend you use OCI registries over Legacy Pack registries.
Palette supports OCI registries that support basic authentication. OCI registries can also be used to store and serve images, Helm Charts, Zarf packages, and Packs. Refer to the OCI Registries resource to learn more about OCI registries.
Scope
Registries are added at the tenant level and are available to all users in the tenant. You can add multiple registries of the same type to Palette. If you are using a self-hosted Palette instance, or Palette VerteX, you can add registries through the system console. Registries added through the system console are available to all tenants in the system. Check out the Self-Hosted Add Registry guide or the VerteX Add Registry guide.
Synchronization
Registries are automatically synchronized with Palette every 24 hours. Helm registries are different as you can choose to disable synchronization. When you disable synchronization, you must manually synchronize the Helm registry with Palette. Refer to the Helm Registry resource to learn more about the synchronization behavior of Helm registries.
