Does Docker Hub Mirror Work in China?

What is Docker Hub Mirror?

Docker Hub Mirror is a locally-hosted registry that mirrors Docker Hub, allowing developers to pull images from Docker Hub through a faster, regional proxy. This improves build times and reliability, especially in areas with slower access to international internet services.

Is Docker Hub Mirror Available in China?

Accessing Docker Hub directly from China is slow and often unreliable due to restrictions on international bandwidth and The Great Firewall. Using an official or custom Docker Hub mirror hosted in China can greatly enhance reliability. However, developers still need to be cautious about compliance with content and software import regulations.
