At last year’s DockerCon, Docker launched its Docker Build remote build service and today it is taking this a step further with the launch of Docker Build Cloud, a fully managed service that, you guessed it, allows development teams to offload their image builds to the cloud.
“Every week, millions of developers run ‘docker build [x],” Giri Sreenivas, Docker’s chief product officer, told me, referring to the standard command developers use to kick off their Docker builds.
“Docker builds are being run in both places, so let’s go ahead and make sure we can support accelerating builds in either of those locations,” he said.
Developers can then buy Docker Build Cloud plans starting at $5 per seat/month for 200 build minutes, with extra time on top of that costing $0.05/minute.
That cloud mean, for example, that Docker Cloud Build would work in tandem with Docker Scout, its service for finding vulnerable packages in a container, and then create a more secure build that developers could switch over to.
