My two cents: I do prefer to handle the images as tarballs in a Mender artifact rather than a docker registry depending on how stable the network connection is.

If the connection is pretty choppy or unstable, Mender provides good reliability that eventually the container will be there.

I am unsure how reliable is to consume the registry in the long run.

Thx for the opinion, but my docker img is 5gb ( i need to use a cuda GPU so there is no chance of making it smaller ) and has some problems with deploing. Im also curios what is your opinion about deploying just “pure” code?
