Hey, I have a question about the docker containers that are tagged with VERSION or VERSION-slash.

I’m just using the dgraph dockers for local development to teach myself, etc. So I have zero and alpha set up in a docker compose. But I’m confused about which docker container to use. What’s the difference between the two?

Thanks in advance!

If you’re running locally, then use the tagged releases like `v21.03.1`. That tag doesn’t change and follows our official [releases](https://dgraph.io/docs/releases).

The image for the `v21.03-slash` tag can change at any time and generally follows the release running in Dgraph Cloud.

@dmai how come there is a [v21.09-slash](https://hub.docker.com/layers/dgraph/dgraph/v21.09-slash/images/sha256-55cb606b8069531e7133a660aa235ff8a9253369e9ad90e0896bdead93b8c2f5?context=explore) but no v21.09.x tag?
