Create and Manage Azure Container Registry

Azure Container Registry (ACR) is a managed, private Docker registry service that enables organizations to store and manage container images securely in Azure. It serves as a central repository for container images and artifacts, providing enterprise-grade security, geo-replication capabilities, and seamless integration with Azure services. For organizations adopting containerization, ACR simplifies the container lifecycle management while ensuring secure and reliable access to container images.

In this lab, you will learn how to create and work with Azure Container Registry. You'll learn how to set up a container registry, build and push container images directly in Azure using ACR's cloud-based build service, and manage your container images through both the Azure Portal and Azure CLI.
