Dokploy vs NetBox: at a glance
What is Dokploy?
Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
What is NetBox?
NetBox 4.7's patch run fixes a token leak and a broken restore path.
Four 4.7 patches followed the September 4.7.0 release. 4.7.1 reinstalled hierarchical-path triggers that a pg_dump restore silently dropped, 4.7.2 stopped background bulk requests recording plaintext API tokens in job results, 4.7.3 was a REST and GraphQL performance release, and 4.7.4 adds change-log IDs to webhook payloads, fixes the circuit status GraphQL enum and warns about a thumbnail storage change.

Dokploy
2.5INFRA · APIS
Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.
◆ Current state
This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.
◆ Where it's heading
The commercial thread predicted from the plan limits has become concrete: the 0.30 releases include Cloud onboarding and trial handling alongside the self-hosted product. Hardening continues in smaller steps, including a Node.js security bump in v0.30.9. Patch notes have grown thinner, and two recent tags carry no change list at all.
◆ Prediction
Expect further Cloud billing and onboarding work on the 0.30 line. With v0.30.10's notes empty, its content cannot be judged.
NetBox
5.0INFRA · APIS
NetBox 4.7's patch run fixes a token leak and a broken restore path.
◆ Current state
Four 4.7 patches followed the September 4.7.0 release. 4.7.1 reinstalled hierarchical-path triggers that a pg_dump restore silently dropped, 4.7.2 stopped background bulk requests recording plaintext API tokens in job results, 4.7.3 was a REST and GraphQL performance release, and 4.7.4 adds change-log IDs to webhook payloads, fixes the circuit status GraphQL enum and warns about a thumbnail storage change.
◆ Where it's heading
The ltree migration in 4.7.0 is still generating follow-up work, and the patch notes are candid about what broke. Performance work on REST serialisation and GraphQL has been steady across the line, and event payloads are getting richer for automation users.
◆ Prediction
Expect further 4.7.x patches on a two-week rhythm with more API performance fixes; the entries don't show what 4.8 will contain.
