Annotations and Labels in Container Images

Read Original

This technical article clarifies the distinction between annotations and labels in Docker/OCI container images. It references the OCI Image Format Specification, explains where each type of metadata is stored (Image Configuration vs. Manifest/Index), and provides practical examples using `docker inspect` on images from Bitnami and Chainguard to illustrate their use.
