    13  
    14  ## Introduction
    15  
    16  A Registry is a hosted service containing
    17  [*repositories*](/terms/repository/#repository-def) of
    18  [*images*](/terms/image/#image-def) which responds to the Registry API.
    19  
    20  The default registry can be accessed using a browser at
    21  [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) or using the
    22  `docker search` command.
