Amazon ECR repository creation templates are now generally available

News



The article announces the general availability of repository creation templates for Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR). These templates allow customers to specify initial configuration settings for repositories automatically created by ECR through pull through cache and replication.

Specifically, the article covers:

  • Repository creation templates can specify configuration for repository settings like access policies, tag immutability, encryption, and lifecycle policies.
  • Templates contain a customer-specified prefix to match new repositories to a specific template.
  • As new repositories are created by ECR, the corresponding template configuration is automatically applied.
  • This allows customers to control and customize default creation settings for repositories created via pull through cache and replication.
  • Repository creation templates are available in all AWS regions, except AWS GovCloud and AWS China Regions.
