Vercel Container Registry has increased the maximum size of compressed image layers from 500 MB to 2 GB, while maintaining a total image size limit of 15 GB. This change allows for more efficient storage and management of container images, particularly for large applications. The new support for larger compressed image layers is available in Vercel CLI v58.3.0 and later, and enables teams to manage repositories, images, and tags with the `vercel vcr` commands.
