Docker registry hosting

Your own private Docker registry on a VPS.

Build an image once, push it to your own registry and pull it on every server, laptop or CI runner that needs it. A Docker registry keeps your private images and their tags in one place you control, so deployments run on your own storage and by your rules. At ZAP-Hosting it is a self-hosted one-click app: pick Docker Registry from the Coolify marketplace on your VPS, and the service is deployed with persistent storage.

Root access means the registry works the way your team does. Add htpasswd users, serve it over TLS on your own domain, enable deletes and run garbage collection when old layers pile up. Next to it you can run a web UI container, a Gitea or GitHub Actions runner, or Watchtower for automatic redeploys — all on the same server, managed over SSH or in Coolify.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Docker Registry

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

You pay a fixed price for the VPS plan you choose, not per image, pull or stored tag. Plans differ in CPU, RAM and disk space, and the current prices load live from the shop in the pricing section on this page. The Docker Registry software itself is open source and adds no license fee.

  • Fixed price per VPS plan
  • Open-source registry software
  • Flexible terms, cancel anytime

Yes. On a ZAP-Hosting VPS you deploy Docker Registry as a one-click app from the Coolify marketplace. Coolify pulls the official registry image, mounts persistent storage and lets you attach your own domain. You keep full root access, so you can also run it with Docker Compose by hand if you prefer. Learn more in the Help Center

  • One-click deploy via Coolify
  • Persistent storage for your images
  • Full root and SSH access

It depends on how many repositories you keep and how big your layers are. Images share base layers, so ten services on the same base image need far less than ten full copies. Start with a plan whose disk fits your current images plus room for new tags, and run garbage collection regularly.

  • Shared base layers are stored once
  • Plan room for new tags and multi-arch builds
  • Garbage collection frees deleted layers

Your VPS is set up automatically right after ordering. Then open the One-Click Apps, pick Docker Registry and deploy: Coolify pulls the image and starts the service with persistent storage. Point your domain at it, run docker login and push your first image.

  • Automatic VPS setup after ordering
  • Deploy from the One-Click Apps
  • docker login, tag, push

You choose from ZAP-Hosting locations in Europe and America when you order. Pick the location closest to your servers, CI runners and team so pushes and pulls stay fast. Teams in North America often start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles.

  • Locations in Europe and America
  • Choose the location near your servers and team

Yes, you can cancel your Docker registry VPS anytime in your dashboard. The cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term, and the server keeps running until then, so you have time to pull or move your images.

  • Cancel anytime
  • Server runs until the end of the term

Serve the registry only over HTTPS on your own domain — Coolify can request the TLS certificate for you. Then enable authentication, for example htpasswd users, so docker login is required before any push or pull. Keep the VPS itself updated and close ports you do not need. Linux security tips in the Help Center

  • HTTPS on your own domain
  • htpasswd or token authentication
  • Updated system and closed ports

Deleting a tag only removes the manifest; the layers stay on disk. Enable deletes in the registry config, remove the tags you no longer need, then run registry garbage-collect inside the container. Use --dry-run first to see what would be removed. With root access you can schedule the cleanup via cron.

  • Enable deletes in the config
  • Preview with --dry-run
  • Schedule cleanup via cron

Why does docker push fail with "unauthorized: authentication required"?
Usually the client is not logged in to this registry host. Run docker login with your registry domain, check that the htpasswd user exists and make sure the image tag starts with that domain. I can walk you through each check.
