Build optimized Docker containers

Optimize Dockerfiles, docker-compose, multi-stage builds, and container security hardening

When production containers require optimized build time, minimal image size, and security hardening rather than default Docker patterns.

• · Dockerfile or docker-compose.yaml
• · application code + dependencies

• · optimized Dockerfile: multi-stage, layer caching, base image selection
• · docker-compose config: service orchestration, networking, volumes
• · security hardening: non-root user, minimal base, secrets management
• · build performance audit: layer caching, build time

• · Dockerfile analyzer (stdlib Python)
• · docker-compose validator
• · security scanner (OWASP, CIS benchmarks)
• · build performance profiler

• · application deployable as container
• · base image available (public or private registry)

• · Multi-stage optimization breaks on non-standard build systems
• · Security hardening (non-root) incompatible with legacy app
• · Layer caching doesn't improve build time if dependencies change frequently

• · Multi-stage build patterns (layer optimization)
• · OWASP + CIS security benchmarks
• · Build performance profiling
• · docker-compose orchestration validation
