Containers
This project is a cloud-native software distribution and an OCI container image library. It provides a collection of pre-configured, hardened container images and Docker Compose application stacks designed for consistent deployment across cloud and on-premises environments.
The images are production-ready and compiled using standardized security configurations and vulnerability scanning to reduce attack surfaces. These hardened application images are designed to minimize manual setup and security risks during deployment.
The project covers container vulnerability management, production-ready image building, and application orchestration. It includes the ability to launch multi-service application environments as single units using orchestration configuration files.
Features
- Hardened Container Images - Compiles secure, production-ready hardened container images by applying standardized configurations to open-source applications.
- Cloud-Native Software Distributions - Acts as a comprehensive distribution of standardized containerized software for diverse cloud and on-premises environments.
- Config-Driven Image Building - Uses standardized configuration files to automate the compilation and assembly of production-ready container images.
- Container Image Building - Implements a consistent build process to create standardized and secure container images for reliable open-source software deployment.
- Docker Compose Deployments - Provides pre-configured Docker Compose templates to launch multi-service application stacks with a single command.
- OCI Container Image Libraries - Maintains a comprehensive library of pre-configured and hardened OCI container images for popular open-source services.
- Vulnerability Scanning - Integrates automated vulnerability scanning into the image build pipeline to detect and resolve security flaws before publication.
- Container Image Vulnerability Scanners - Analyzes container images during the build process using automated tools to detect known OS and application-layer vulnerabilities.
- Multi-Stage Container Builds - Employs multi-stage builds to separate the build environment from the runtime image, ensuring smaller and more secure production containers.
- Container Orchestration Configurations - Packages application services with compatible configurations to enable seamless deployment via container orchestration files.
