Also, if stop is taking more time then Kill will be initiated automatically. Though, we can start the stopped container anytime.

Docker Kill : this command will terminate the running container right away.

A stopped/killed conatiner can be restarted

A stopped container cannot be killed (as stop has sent the sigkill interrupt to the process)

Kill will be trigered in cases where stop is not fullfilled within the stipulated time.

while Docker kill forcefully terminates the container without any opportunity for cleanup.

Kill: It would terminate without graceful shutdown

In both the cases, we can start the container using docker start command.
