Container Registry is now shut down. We recommend that you use Artifact Registry for storing and managing container images

## Announcement Container Registry is now [shut down](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/transition/prepare-gcr-shutdown). We recommend that you use [Artifact Registry](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/overview) for storing and managing container images. By default, new deployments created after March 5, 2025, use Artifact Registry instead of Container Registry for storing application build images. For more information, see [Migrate App Engine container images to Artifact Registry](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/migration-center/migrate-to-artifact-registry).
