Hi,
Now all iotdb's docker images are under apache/iotdb, e.g.,
- apache/iotdb:0.12.2-node for the single node module
- apache/iotdb:0.12.2-cluster for the cluster module
and
- apache/iotdb:0.12.2-grafana for the grafana connector module
In this way, we actually use the version of the images to distinguish
different modules.
The advantage is that users can find all images in one webpage [1]
The disadvantage is that it is hard to define the tag of "latest".
The problem will be more serious when using docker-compose, for example,
we may write a docker-compose file for starting iotdb server, grafana,
iotdb-grafana-connector:
```
services:
iotdb:
image: apache/iotdb:0.12.2-node
grafana-connector:
image: apache/iotdb:0.12.2-grafana
```
Then we can not use "latest" and we have to maintain docker-compose
file for each version.
If we separate the docker repo into individuals, then we never do not
need to maintain the docker compose file:
```
services:
iotdb:
image: apache/iotdb
grafana-connector:
image: apache/iotdb-grafana
```
and the docker compose file will use the "latest" version directly.
So, my idea is, apply 3 repos for iotdb docker images:
- iotdb, for iotdb-node
- iotdb-cluster, for the cluster module
- iotdb-grafana, for iotdb-grafana-connecotr module.
How do you think?
