Cosmoner Container Registry vs Depot

Cosmoner Container Registry is a managed private registry backed by Amazon ECR for storing container images used by apps. Developers can push and pull images from a laptop or CI system with Docker and a Cosmoner API key. Images in a project registry appear in the Apps image deployment flow, where deployments authenticate without a pull secret. Scanning on push is enabled by default and checks images against known vulnerabilities. Images use AES256 encryption by default, with a customer KMS key available for repositories created afterward. Retention settings can keep a selected number of recent images and expire untagged images after a chosen number of days. Repositories are private by default; public repositories require a monthly egress cap and revert to private when it is reached. The product lists nine regions across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific, and a registry’s region cannot be changed after creation. Uploads are not charged; egress, storage, and a registry fee are billed separately. The registry fee is $1 a month, prorated from creation; storage is $0.25 a month per GB, and egress is $0.15 a month per GB after the first 10 GB per organization per billing period.

Depot provides software delivery tools spanning source control, builds, CI runners, sandboxes, caches, and registries. Its container build service is a drop-in replacement for Docker builds, with persistent caching and native x86 and Arm support. Depot CI runs existing GitHub Actions workflows as a programmable, debuggable CI service, while Depot Registry is an OCI-compliant registry for builds, pull-through caching, and other artifacts. Integrations include GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI, Google Cloud Build, Travis CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, Buildkite, Jenkins, and AWS CodeBuild. Cache integrations cover Bazel, Go, Gradle, Maven, Pants, sccache, Nx, and Turborepo. Each build and CI run is isolated in a dedicated virtual machine. Depot says communications use TLS and storage is encrypted at rest; it also identifies SOC 2 Type 2 compliance and time-bound, permission-based debugging access. Plans start at $20 a month, billed monthly, with a 7-day trial and no free plan. Developer includes community support; Business includes Slack Connect support.
