Summary
Docker images are essential components used for building Docker containers, and it is important to keep them small to ensure faster deployment and transfer. To reduce the image size, it is important to use a smaller image base such as Alpine, use the.dockerignore file, utilize the multi-stage builds feature, avoid adding unnecessary layers, beware of updates and unnecessary packages and dependencies, and use a.dockerignore file to exclude unnecessary files. Additionally, it is important to ensure the latest version of the platform you are building on, clean up the apt cache, and use a dnf clean all option when building an image.
