Session
This session is designed to equip developers with the knowledge and skills needed to optimize container images effectively. We will explore overlay filesystems, highlighting their importance in optimizing container environments. Attendees will learn how to inspect container images layer by layer, gaining insights into best practices for writing Dockerfiles and avoiding common pitfalls. The talk will showcase powerful open-source tools like dive and docker-squash, alongside techniques such as multi-stage builds, demonstrating how to achieve significant reductions in container image sizes—often exceeding 80%.
