Lagoon vs Clair: What are the differences?

Developers describe Lagoon as "A build and deploy system - from local Docker to Kubernetes in production". It solves what developers are dreaming about: A system that allows developers to locally develop their code and their services with Docker and run the exact same system in production. The same Docker images, the same service configurations and the same code. On the other hand, Clair is detailed as "Open Source Vulnerability Analysis for your Containers". Clair is a container vulnerability analysis service by CoreOS. It provides the list of vulnerabilities that threaten each container and can sends notifications whenever new vulnerabilities that affect existing containers are released.
