# Day 28 : Creating a Private ECR Repository

Welcome to Day 28. Today, we will learn how to create a private ECR repository. Docker files and other necessary files are already provided in the **/root/pyapp** directory. You just need to build the Docker image and push it to the AWS private ECR repository.

### What is AWS Private ECR Repository?

**Amazon ECR (Elastic Container Registry) Private** is a fully managed Docker container registry that allows you to securely store, manage, and deploy your proprietary container images.

While a **Public** registry (like Docker Hub or ECR Public) allows anyone to download your images, a **Private** registry restricts access only to specific AWS accounts, IAM users, or VPCs that you authorize.
