Description

At the moment, if the containers are destroyed, information about scans are stored in the database (assuming a remote DB has been configured). However, the original image will be lost. It would be nice if the image could also be stored in a remote storage solution. E.g., AWS, google cloud storage, ftp, etc.

Example usage:

1. Configure remote DB
2. Configure remote storage
3. Do some scans
4. Delete containers
5. Bring up new containers with same configuration
6. Still have access to original images and scan info
