Amazon ECR Pricing: When $0.10/GB Becomes the Most Expensive Storage in Your Account
ECR storage is $0.10/GB-month — twice S3 Standard. Cross-region replication doubles or triples that. Enhanced scanning bills $0.09 per image scanned, on every push. Pull-through caches for Docker Hub and ECR Public add storage plus data-transfer-in. A 200-service organization with 10 environments and 3 regions can spend more on ECR than on the EKS clusters pulling from it.
