Container Images Considered Harmful

Friday 07 Sept -  16:30

Aleksa Sarai, SUSE

Effectively all modern container image formats are based on tar, and many proposed improvements to formats are only surface-level changes. In an attempt to make their images smaller, a lot of users end up patching over the underlying issue by using smaller distribution images and stunting their container images. In this talk, we will discuss the many drawbacks of using tar and outline how image formats should be redesigned to be much more efficient. In addition, an overview about the deficiencies in most current methods of building images will be given with some example solutions.
