Immutable Container Image Build & Validation Pipeline
Seed: Dockerfile, reproducible_base_images, validation_tests; sample: scan for vulnerabilities, run integration smoke tests in isolated runtimeADVERTISEMENT - IN-ARTICLE
Implementation Guide
Create a pipeline that produces immutable, signed container images with provenance metadata, vulnerability scanning, SBOM attachment, and runtime smoke-tests. Ensure images are immutable, tagged with semver and digest and that CI blocks unscanned images from being promoted. This reduces supply-chain risk and simplifies runtime trust.
