• Down With the Sickness

  In last weeks blog I talked about what my plan was for release 2.9. My main areas of concern was finishing the migration to make use of the images stored in our Docker registry.

• `COPY –chmod` reduced the size of my container image by 35%

  In my experience docker-slim[0] is the way to go for creating minimal and secure Docker images. I wasted a lot of time in the past trying to ship with Alpine base images and statically compiling complicated software. All the performance, compatibility, package availability headaches this brings is not worth it when docker-slim does a better job of removing OS from your images while letting you use any base image... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• A container is not a VM.. so let's go ahead and create a docker file that installs ubuntu

  If you take one of those Ubuntu images and run it against Docker Slim, you'll see how much is not used and therefore taken out of the image. With simple applications in a docker, you might see it remove over 99% of the files in the image as unnecessary. Source: over 2 years ago
