docker-production

What problem does it solve?

Production Docker patterns provide secure, small production-ready images using multi-stage builds, non-root execution, and robust deployment configurations to simplify and harden deployments.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Multi-stage builds to minimize image size and separate build-time vs runtime dependencies.
• Security hardening: non-root users, minimal base images, HEALTHCHECKs, and secret management recommendations.
• Compose for production: production-ready docker-compose configurations with secrets, logging, and networking setups.
• Registry and logging: guidance on private registries, image signing, and structured logging for production workloads.
• Use Case: When deploying Node, Python, or Go services across environments, reuse these patterns to ensure consistency and security.

Quick Start

Build production Docker images via the provided multi-stage Dockerfiles and start services with docker-compose, then verify the environment in a staging cluster.
