About ORAS
ORAS (OCI Registry As Storage) distributes any kind of artifact through OCI-compliant registries, not only container images. The CLI can push and pull artifacts, attach supply chain artifacts to images, show reference relations, migrate artifacts between registries and work with OCI image layouts on disk.
It can also inspect image manifests and layers and manage tags and repositories. Client libraries are available for Go, Python, .NET, Java and Rust for building your own registry clients.
Strengths
- Stores any artifact type in an OCI registry
- Attaches signatures and SBOMs to images
- Installs via Homebrew and winget
- Libraries in several languages

- Needs an OCI-compliant registry
- Command-line only
