Description

We need to push container images – notably SDK harness container images – to a public place with each release, so that they can be referenced and used. For example, https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/ might be an option, although Docker hub seems more geared towards containerizing container-unware content post-release.

For users who wish to build dev (or custom) container images any location is fine (personal account on docker hub, GCR, etc), but we do not want it to be a requirement for normal use of official Beam releases.
