Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, E
Explanation
Harbor is a cloud-native container image registry that plays a crucial role in managing container images securely and efficiently in a Tanzu environment. It provides features like vulnerability scanning, RBAC, and image replication, which enhance security, access control, and availability. However, Harbor is not responsible for container runtime management or Kubernetes cluster operations, as those are outside its scope.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Harbor includes vulnerability scanning capabilities, which allow organizations to identify and remediate security issues in container images before deployment.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Harbor is a container image registry and does not serve as a replacement for Kubernetes’ container runtime. It is used for image management, not runtime operations.
- C. Correct.
Correct. Harbor supports role-based access control (RBAC), enabling fine-grained management of user and group permissions for accessing and managing image repositories.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Harbor does not manage pod scheduling or resource allocation, as these are responsibilities of Kubernetes. Harbor focuses on image management and related functionalities.
- E. Correct.
Correct. Harbor supports image replication across multiple Harbor instances, which is useful for ensuring high availability, disaster recovery, and multi-site deployments.
