Dokploy vs Clair: at a glance
What is Dokploy?
Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
What is Clair?
Clair 4.10 RC can read SBOMs to match Java vulnerabilities.
Clair cut its first 4.10.0 release candidate on November 13, eleven months after 4.9.0. Its Java indexers can now read CycloneDX SBOM files and treat them as the source of truth, and Red Hat's VEX data now covers Maven advisories, so Java packages in Red Hat images can be matched. It also reduces memory use when many packages share a source package.

Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
◆ Current state
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
◆ Where it's heading
The commercial thread predicted from the plan limits has become concrete: the 0.30 releases include Cloud onboarding and trial handling alongside the self-hosted product. Hardening continues in smaller steps, including a Node.js security bump in v0.30.9. Patch notes have grown thinner, and two recent tags carry no change list at all.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Cloud billing and onboarding work on the 0.30 line. With v0.30.10's notes empty, its content cannot be judged.
Clair
2.5INFRA · APIS
Clair 4.10 RC can read SBOMs to match Java vulnerabilities.
◆ Current state
Clair cut its first 4.10.0 release candidate on November 13, eleven months after 4.9.0. Its Java indexers can now read CycloneDX SBOM files and treat them as the source of truth, and Red Hat's VEX data now covers Maven advisories, so Java packages in Red Hat images can be matched. It also reduces memory use when many packages share a source package.
◆ Where it's heading
Since 4.8 Clair has moved from Red Hat's older OVAL data to VEX, and each release follows Red Hat's security data more closely. 4.10 adds SBOMs as an input, so Clair can match what an image's own manifest declares, not only what it finds on disk.
◆ Prediction
More 4.10 release candidates and then a final are likely; the long gap between releases suggests that could take weeks.
