Overview

Build smaller, safer containers with Alpine Linux and ship them confidently to production on Docker and Kubernetes. Too many images carry unnecessary packages, mutable tags, and hidden risks. This book shows you how to construct lean Alpine-based containers, track intent with apk, and meet modern platform and security expectations without slowing your delivery. You will learn proven patterns for reproducible builds, digest-pinned releases, Restricted-ready Kubernetes specs, and practical vulnerability management. Every technique is grounded in real workflows, from CI through cluster operations. Choose the right Alpine branch, pin by digest, and plan upgrades Use apk effectively, manage the world file, and apply safe pins Design multi stage Dockerfiles with clean runtime layers Leverage BuildKit cache mounts, secrets, and SSH forwarding Adopt non root execution, drop capabilities, and read only roots Create Kubernetes specs that pass the Restricted profile Tune DNS and TLS on Alpine, including ndots and custom roots Build multi arch images with buildx and manifest lists Generate SBOMs with Syft, scan with Grype, and triage using apk data Sign and verify images with Cosign or Notation and enforce policy Package internal software with aports, APKBUILD, and private repos Handle usr merge paths and run safe branch migrations Troubleshoot in clusters, including resolver quirks and libc issues This is a code heavy guide, with working Dockerfiles, YAML specs, and shell commands that translate directly into production pipelines. Get the practical Alpine patterns you need for reliable releases, and grab your copy today.
