Decision

Technology follows the product goal

Proof

5.0 on Google and public case studies

Outcome

Repeatable delivery across environments

01 / Fit

Product first. Stack second.

When Docker is the best choice

Docker works well in most projects requiring consistent environments.

  • Projects requiring dev/staging/prod consistency
  • Microservices and distributed apps
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Apps requiring easy scaling

When to consider alternatives

Docker has its limitations - in some scenarios other solutions will be a better choice.

  • Very simple apps (may be overhead)
  • Apps requiring very low latency (better bare metal)

02 / Solution

Architecture and patterns

Docker offers flexible architecture based on containers and images.

  1. 01

    Multi-stage Builds

    Image size optimization through multi-stage builds.

  2. 02

    Docker Compose

    Orchestration of multiple containers for local development.

03 / Quality

Production readiness starts before launch.

Security and quality

Docker requires conscious container security approach.

  • Image Security

    Image scanning (Trivy, Snyk), minimal base images, regular updates.

  • Secrets Management

    Docker secrets, environment variables, not storing secrets in images.

Performance and maintenance

Docker offers good performance but requires optimization.

  • Image Size

    Target < 200MB for apps, using alpine images where possible.

  • Build Time

    Cache layers, multi-stage builds, parallel builds where possible.

04 / Delivery

How we deliver Docker projects

Docker is standard in our projects.

  1. 01

    Containerization

    Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, image optimization, CI/CD integration.

FAQ

Questions before you decide

Is Docker needed in small projects?

Depends on case. For small projects may be overhead, but for most apps Docker facilitates deployment and maintenance.
