Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to importing software container images, where an image importer that may import a very large number of container images into local repositories from one or more upstream repositories to an enterprise container platform. An associated computing cluster executes containers (for example, applications and operators) based on the imported container images. Each release (version) of a product supported by the enterprise container platform may require importing newer image sets with respect to the current version. With one aspect, an image importer maintains an image list for container images of the current version, where only missing newer container images for a newer version are added to the list. Only the missing container images for the new version are imported to the enterprise container platform. This approach circumvents importing previously imported container and/or available newer images, thus reducing the amount of imported data from upstream repositories.
