Is it possible to host a public docking hub for the Kubernetes Container Engine without loading it into the Container Register?

Question

Still new to containers and kubernetes here, but I am struggling with cluster deployment in the Google Containers Engine and wondered if you can use the hosted docker node image to deploy containers, so in my .yaml configuration file I would say:

... image: hub.docker.com/r/my-team/my-image:latest ... 

Is it possible? Or do you need to upload / build an image locally and then upload it to Google Containers Registery?

Thank you very much

Yes it is possible. A replication template template or special specification image is not special. If you specify image: redis , you will get the last tag of the official Docker Hub Redis library, as if you did docker pull redis .
