Organizations rely on public registries for images to build or complement their container applications. The more public images that are pulled, the more teams need to ensure they stay updated with the public image’s source registry. With pull through cache repositories, there are no additional solutions or tools to manage. Using pull through cache, customers can cache public images into their ECR registry and leverage all the benefits of Amazon ECR without the operational burden of syncing public images. It supports frequent source registry syncs, helping to keep container images sourced from public registries up to date, and lets customers use ECR features for both public and private images.
