Google Cloud Container Registry
Container Registry, set to be deprecated on March 18, 2025, stores images within Cloud Storage buckets in Google Cloud projects, requiring permission management at the bucket level. Users are encouraged to migrate to Artifact Registry, which offers enhanced container and artifact management capabilities without bucket complexities, ensuring seamless transition and ongoing support.
