Docker is a platform for building, deploying and managing various application containers, which are virtualized, on a common operating system. Docker has been widely adopted in every sector. Also, it can be used for the distribution and management of Docker images. Images are nothing but the iso images ie. images of operating systems and enterprise applications. Docker registry is a container which can be used to store images of operating system and enterprise applications. This paper proposes building a private centralized registry for employees of any organization. It includes generating Docker images for Linux platforms and automating image creation with Dockerfiles that will work across platforms. The paper also proposes the development of effective search logic for searching Docker images to get faster and easier outcomes. Also integrating this framework with the existing framework of any organization to improve their work efficiency.
