OCI Image Manifest Specification

There are three main goals of the Image Manifest Specification. The first goal is content-addressable images, by supporting an image model where the image's configuration can be hashed to generate a unique ID for the image and its components. The second goal is to allow multi-architecture images, through a "fat manifest" which references image manifests for platform-specific versions of an image. In OCI, this is codified in an image index. The third goal is to be translatable to the OCI Runtime Specification.

This section defines the application/vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1+json media type. For the media type(s) that this is compatible with see the matrix.

Image Manifest

Unlike the image index, which contains information about a set of images that can span a variety of architectures and operating systems, an image manifest provides a configuration and set of layers for a single container image for a specific architecture and operating system.
