Setup cross-account Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) access using Terraform and GitHub Actions

Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) is a fully managed Docker container registry that allows developers to store container images securely. It does so by storing them in an ECR repository, a logical separation for storing, organizing, and versioning the Docker images inside an ECR repository. In a typical containerized application CI/CD pipeline, the Continuous Integration … Continue reading Setup cross-account Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) access using Terraform and GitHub Actions

Push Docker images to Amazon ECR using YAML based Azure Pipelines

When it comes to identifying a process to deliver continuous value to customers, CI-CD is the defacto standard. And container technology enables that by encapsulating an application and its dependencies into a package that can be hosted and scaled independently of other applications. So DevOps engineers and application developers merged these ideas to forge a … Continue reading Push Docker images to Amazon ECR using YAML based Azure Pipelines
