Abstract
An apparatus includes a processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The processing device is configured to obtain metrics characterizing performance, over two or more periods of time, of software container instances of each of a plurality of software container images. The processing device is also configured to determine, for each of the two or more periods of time, a periodic quality ranking of the plurality of software container images based at least in part on the obtained metrics. The processing device is further configured to generate an overall quality ranking of the plurality of software container images utilizing a consensus ranking aggregation algorithm configured to aggregate the periodic quality rankings of the plurality of software container images across the two or more periods of time, and to publish the overall quality ranking of the plurality of software container images to a software container registry.
