Why Docker Scout

On What Docker Scout Has to Offer

Upon the recent release of Docker Scout, a subcommand in the Docker toolchain, I published an article titled “Docker Scout vs Scan”, examining the two subcommands in terms of their interfaces, licensing, and features. Following conversations with Amy Bass, Docker product manager, and Christian Dupuis, the lead engineer working on Scout, I realized that my article missed a critical aspect of Scout’s functionality. The purpose of this piece is to address this oversight and provide a comprehensive analysis of Docker Scout’s capabilities.
