• Treat build file as a Blueprint • Don’t login to build/configure • Version control build file • Be explicit with versions, not latest • Always list registry pulling FROM • Each Run creates a new layer • Specify USER, default is root BUILD FILE BEST PRACTICES FROM registry.redhat.com/rhel7 RUN groupadd -g 999 appuser && \ useradd -r -u 999 -g appuser appuser USER appuser CMD echo “Hello” Build file
