Container Registry Access for Containerized Deployments
Starting with version 19.0 LTS, ADONIS is provided in the form of OCI images for containerized deployments. The OCI images are available through a publicly accessible OCI registry and can be integrated into your existing container infrastructure (Kubernetes or Docker Compose). Helm charts for Kubernetes deployments are also available through the registry. For Docker Compose, we provide a sample docker-compose.yml manifest in our GitHub repository (https://github.com/BOC-Group/deployment-examples/), which can serve as a starting point for deploying and configuring your BOC product in a Docker environment.
What Changes for You
With the new containerized deployment model, you benefit from:
Standardized Deployments – uniform, reproducible installations via container images, including all dependencies such as Java and Apache Tomcat
Simplified Updates – provisioning of new versions via the registry
The operation of your database systems remains unchanged. Databases continue to be managed independently of the application deployment, allowing you to use your existing database infrastructure. The application server container must be able to communicate with the database server over the network with minimal latency.
Access to the OCI registry requires registration. After reviewing your request, we will provide your organisation with individual credentials. Please specify the contact person who will be responsible for importing the OCI images into your local OCI registry, as this person will receive the registry credentials.
How to Obtain Access to the OCI Registry
If you require access to the OCI registry, please contact our Support team via the Support Portal: https://support.boc-group.com/.
Please provide the following information as part of your registration request:
| Information | Description |
|---|---|
| Company Name | Official corporate name of your company |
| Contact Person | Name and email address of the responsible person (Application Owner) |
| Product(s) | Which of our products you intend to deploy containerized (e.g., ADONIS) |
| Contact for Credentials Delivery | Email address and mobile phone number of the technical lead responsible for installing the BOC product |
Once your request has been reviewed and approved, the registry credentials will be sent to the contact specified in your request. The mobile phone number is required for two-factor authentication (2FA) to ensure secure access to the credentials. If you are unable to provide a mobile phone number, please indicate this in your request.
The credentials authorize you to download each product up to four times per month. To avoid production issues or blocked CI/CD pipelines caused by download limits, we strongly recommend operating your own local OCI registry.
We therefore recommend one of the following approaches:
Caching Proxy / Pull-Through Cache: Set up a registry within your environment (e.g., in your Kubernetes cluster or CI/CD network) that acts as a proxy for the BOC upstream registry.
Local Mirroring: Alternatively, you can explicitly push the required images to your internal private registry and update your deployment manifests to point to this internal source. This solution is also suitable for air-gapped environments.
