Docker Deployment Standards#

• Dockerfiles: Provide a Dockerfile for the application to enable containerised deployment.
• Lightweight Images: Strive for lightweight Docker images by using appropriate base images and multi-stage builds.
• Configuration: Ensure environment-specific configuration (e.g., database connection strings, external service URLs) is managed through environment variables injected into Docker containers.
• Logging: Configure containerised logging to output to stdout and stderr so that log aggregation systems can collect logs easily.
