Docker Registry is an open source application that can store and share images in a simple yet powerful way.

The Registry is a stateless, highly scalable server side application that stores and lets you distribute Docker images.

To get your own docker registry, you need to have a docker engine setup on your server and some knowledge of how to work with containers.

Once your Docker registry is running, you can start by building your first image or simply getting an image from another Registry and push it to you brand new private one.

To be sure that your image is correctly downloaded you can verify using docker image ls command.
