Storage and billing
How Container Registry storage is measured and billed per GB each month above the included amount, and how to keep your storage down with retention rules.
How storage is billed
- Each organization gets an amount of storage included. Above it, storage is billed per GB each month.
- Storage is the size of the image layers you push. A multi-platform image counts each platform's layers once.
- Vulnerability scanning is billed separately.
The Storage figure on the Container Registry page shows what you use, the included amount, and this month's cost. See your price list in the console for current prices.
Keep storage down
- Add retention rules to delete old and untagged images automatically.
- Delete tags and repositories you no longer need.
- Untagged layers are removed by garbage collection every 7 days, so freed space shows up within a week.
