Depot vs Samsung Cloud Platform Container Registry

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.

Samsung Cloud Platform Container Registry stores, manages, and shares container images and OCI-standard artifacts in Samsung Cloud Platform. Stored content includes container images, Helm charts, and OCI artifacts, with Docker Registry V2 API support. Teams can create or delete registries, manage repository access, and push, pull, view, or remove image tags. Images are retrievable through the standard Docker CLI, and a disaster-recovery registry can provide repository redundancy. Object Storage integration allows registry capacity to be configured as unlimited. Repository security policies and image lifecycle policies include a simulation function. CVE-based scanning reports findings for images, packages, secrets, and language packages. Images are encrypted in Object Storage and transferred over HTTPS, while access follows Samsung Cloud Platform IAM resource-based policies. Interfaces include web UI, API, and CLI. Integrations cover IDP, IAM, Object Storage, Cloud Monitoring, and Logging/Audit. Usage monitoring and event logs are provided. Billing uses stored data and hours, plus scan counts; pricing is on request.
