Lightning Talk: OCI Images for More Than Containers, Jon Johnson, Google
summary
OCI images serve as immutable packages for arbitrary artifacts rather than only container runtimes, and registries store manifests and blobs addressed by content digests. The Crossplane package flow uses go-containerregistry to pull image indexes and extract concatenated YAML layers; a revision reconciler downloads an image, verifies manifests, extracts a single-layer package. Examples include Tekton bundles and Knative controllers resolving tags to digests, and the approach is deployed in production registries.
