As the saying goes, the only constants in life are death and taxes. When you work with the Internet, you get to add another fun thing to that list: service deprecations. This is a frustrating thing that we all have to just live with as a compromise for not owning every single piece of software and service that we use. In their effort to keep life entertaining, Google has announced that they’re deprecating Google Container Registry. This is one of the bigger container registry services outside of the Docker Hub and it’s suddenly everyone’s emergency.

Google Container Registry will be deprecated on March 18, 2025. This date is coming up fast. Are you ready for the change?

The Docker Hub is going to drastically decrease the rate limits for free accounts on April first. Are you ready for those changes? Here’s a high level overview of the rate limit changes we’re about to have:

Account typeOld rate limitNew rate limit (April 1st)
Free, authenticated200 image pulls per hour100 image pulls per hour
Free, unauthenticated100 image pulls per hour10 image pulls per hour (per IPv4 address or IPv6 /64 subnet)

What if you could easily cache images so these rate limits don’t impact your workloads? Today I’m going to show you how you can set up your own pull-through cache of the docker hub so that your workloads only have to download images once.
