- Proposed name for the project:
Container-Based Development - Best Practices and Tooling
Project description:
Container technology is a popular packaging method for developers and system administrators to build, ship and run distributed applications.
...
This project takes a communal approach to capturing and developing best practices, guidance, recommendations and common tools for the design of images built using Dockerfiles.
Scope:
This project will develop a specification for the recommended structure of Dockerfiles based on industry best practices
...
- Best practices for the design of space-efficient and scalable images built using Dockerfiles
- Best practices for crafting Dockerfiles
- Best practices for the development of platform-agnostic images
- Dockerfile templates to
- Capture, automate and share experience across projects
- Reduce duplication
- Jumpstart image development
- Optimize resource consumption
- Develop vendor-agnostic images
- New Docker builder patterns and tools
- Explore and issue recommendation on the use of different front-ends
- Evaluate and issue recommendations on the use of BuildKit
Out of scope:
This project doesn't tackle the design or architecture of microservices-based applications.
Having said that, the project acknowledges the synergy and expects to collaborate with ONAP projects such as the Microservices project, OOM and Integration.
Architecture Alignment:
The goals of this project are in perfect alignment with ONAP's architecture principles and architecture quality attributes.
In particular, this projects suppoorts the themes adopted for Beijing and Casablanca: Platform Maturity Requirements (S3P) and Portability
S3P:
| Quality Attribute | Benefit of Image Design Best Practices |
|---|---|
| Scalability |
|
| Manageability |
|
| Usability |
|
| Security |
|
Portability:
Software portability is the ability to use the same software artifacts (images/containers) in different environments.
...
Having best practices and Dockerfile templates that simplify the use of official multi-platform (OS, CPU) base images makes ONAP portable by enabing ONAP deployment in diferent environments.
Other Information:
- Vendor Neutral
