This is an initiative to ensure all documentation complies completely with the Documentation Style Guide section "Documentation is the single source of truth (SSOT)" according to this epic https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1280. In particular, the changes of this commit touch all files under doc/install/. Most notably: - install/redis.md: Redirect to Redis section of install guide. - install/pivotal/index.md: Changed its content to reflect the current status, which is no longer supported (since 2017!). - install/google-protobuf.md: Incorporated inside installation.md under the troubleshooting section. - install/openshift_and_gitlab.md: Clarified that this guide is no longer relevant. We might want to redirect to the Chart docs in the future. - install/structure.md: Incorporated inside installation.md under its own section. - install/kubernetes/index.md: Redirected to https://docs.gitlab.com/charts

# Install GitLab with Docker
|
|
|
|
[Docker](https://www.docker.com) and container technology have been revolutionizing the software world for the past few years. They combine the performance and efficiency of native execution with the abstraction, security, and immutability of virtualization.
|
|
|
|
GitLab provides official Docker images allowing you to easily take advantage of the benefits of containerization while operating your GitLab instance.
|
|
|
|
## Omnibus GitLab based images
|
|
|
|
GitLab maintains a set of [official Docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab) based on our [Omnibus GitLab package](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/README.html). These images include:
|
|
|
|
- [GitLab Community Edition](https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ce/)
|
|
- [GitLab Enterprise Edition](https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ee/)
|
|
- [GitLab Runner](https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-runner/)
|
|
|
|
A [complete usage guide](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/docker/) to these images is available, as well as the [Dockerfile used for building the images](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/tree/master/docker).
|
|
|
|
## Cloud native images
|
|
|
|
GitLab is also working towards a [cloud native set of containers](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/), with a single image for each component service. We intend for these images to eventually replace the [Omnibus GitLab based images](#omnibus-gitlab-based-images).
