Article Summaries:
- DigitalOcean has released General Availability of multi‑registry support for its Container Registry (DOCR) on the Professional Plan. Teams can now create up to ten separate registries, each with its own repositories and settings, at no additional cost. The feature enables environment isolation (dev, staging, prod), regional placement to reduce latency, and compliance with data‑residency rules. It also lays groundwork for future capabilities such as registry mirroring and geo‑replication. The update introduces a new API namespace (v2/registries) for all multi‑registry operations, replacing the legacy singular endpoint. Users can create, list, and manage registries via simple POST and GET requests.
