Developers have always been an integral part of business innovation and transformation. With the massive increase in Docker usage, we can see the continued rising importance of developers as they create the next generation of cloud native applications. You may recall in February we introduced the Docker Index, which gives a snapshot and analysis of developer and dev team preferences and trends based on anonymized data from 5 million Docker Hub users, 2 million Docker Desktop users and countless other developers engaging with content on Docker Hub.

To be clear, the numbers represent total pulls since Docker Hub was created in June of 2014).

Over the same time, the number of repositories on Docker Hub has grown from 6 million to 7 million, while Docker Hub users have grown from 5 million to 7 million, and Docker Desktop installations have gone from 2.4 million to 2.9 million.
