We learnt how to build images locally and push those images to the Docker Hub. The Docker Hub also has the capability to automatically build the image from Dockerfile
kept in the repository of GitHub or Bitbucket. Automated builds are supported on both private and public repositories of GitHub and Bitbucket. The Docker Hub Registry keeps all the automated build images. The Docker Hub Registry is based on open source and can be accessed from https://github.com/docker/docker-registry.
