DigitalOcean's private container image registry (DOCR) for storing and distributing Docker container images. DOCR integrates directly with DOKS clusters, enabling Kubernetes worker nodes to pull images from the private registry without additional credential configuration. Supports image scanning and garbage collection.
A development team pushes their Node.js application Docker image to DOCR after each CI build. Their DOKS cluster is pre-authorized to pull from the registry, so Kubernetes deployments reference `registry.digitalocean.com/myteam/api:v1.2.3` without storing separate image pull secrets.
