NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Trial
Worth pursuing. It is important to understand how to build up this capability. Enterprises should try this technology on a project that can handle the risk.
Dive is a tool for analyzing Docker images; it helps explore each layer in the image and identify what's changed in each layer. Dive estimates image efficiency and wasted space in an image and can be integrated into the continuous integration (CI) pipeline to fail the build based on the efficiency score or amount of wasted space. We've used it in a few projects, and it has proven to be a useful tool — particularly if you're building images with a very low tolerance for additional tools or space consumption.
