Function Overview

If your container engine client is an ECS or CCE node, you can push an image over two types of networks.

• If your client and the image repository are in the same region, you can push an image over private networks.
• If your client and the image repository are in different regions, you can push an image over public networks and the client needs to be bound to an EIP.

• Each image layer uploaded through the client cannot exceed 10 GB.
• Your container engine client version must be 1.11.2 or later.

The user has the programmatic access permission. If the user does not have the permission, log in to IAM as the administrator and grant the user the programmatic access permission.

• A maximum of 10 files can be uploaded at a time. The size of a single file (including the decompressed files) cannot exceed 2 GB.
• The image package is created using container engine 1.11.2 or later.

You can run the docker pull command to pull images from SWR.

You can share your private images with other users and grant the users permissions to pull the images.

The user with whom you shared the image can then log in to the SWR console to view the image by choosing My Images > Shared Images. On the tab page, the user can click the target image to check its detailed information, including the image tag and image pull command.

SWR works with Cloud Container Engine (CCE) to enable automatic application updates. This could be realized by adding a trigger to the desired images.

Organizations enable efficient management of images. Organizations are used to isolate image repositories. With each organization being limited to one company or department, images can be managed in a centralized and efficient manner. An image name needs to be unique within an organization.

You can grant different permissions, namely, read, write, and manage, to users created by the same account. For details, see User Permissions.

To manage SWR permissions, you can use Identity and Access Management (IAM). If you have the SWR Admin or Tenant Administrator permission, you become an admin user of SWR accounts. You can grant permissions to other IAM users in SWR.

If you are not an SWR account admin user, you can request an SWR account admin user to grant you permissions to read, write, or manage a specific image or images in a specific organization.
