# Image

> Learn about deploying Docker images on Aptible

# Overview

On Aptible, a [Docker image](https://docs.docker.com/get-started/overview/#images) is used to deploy app containers.

# Deploying with Git

Deploy with Git (formerly known as Dockerfile Deploy) where you push source code (including a Dockerfile) via Git repository to Aptible, and the platform creates a Docker image on your behalf.

# Deploy from Docker Image

Deploy from Docker Image (formerly known as Direct Docker Image Deploy) where you deploy a Docker image that you have built yourself (e.g., in a CI environment), push it to a registry, and tell Aptible to fetch it from there.
