Containers-roadmap: [ECR] [TAGS]: Increase maximum number of tags per image

[groodt]

Tell us about your request
It would be great if the current maximum limit of 100 tags per image could be increased.

Which service(s) is this request for?
ECR

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?
We work in a monorepo that creates multiple images. We use the git-sha as the "version" tag. The images are built with Bazel, so only rebuilds binary artifacts if there are changes.

In our current setup, all artifacts are released with every green CI build. However, if an image has not changed its digest, the tag will land on previous image digest. We can quickly hit the limit of 100 tags per image in this way.

Are you currently working around this issue?
Bump the image digest when we hit 100 tags.

Thanks very much @omieomye This is great news! I'll take a look and see if we have any issues.

This has been working great for us. We've not run into any tag limits recently and we have examples where there are over 100 tags on a single image.

Thank again!
