Anyone who’s built their own containers, either for local
development or for cloud deployment, knows the advantages of
keeping container sizes small.In most cases, keeping the container
image size small translates to real dollars saved by reducing
bandwidth and storage costs on the cloud.In addition, smaller
images ensure faster transfer and deployments when using them in a
CI/CD server. However, even for experienced Docker users, it can

Applications produce a lot of observability data.And it can be a
constant struggle to source, ingest, filter, and output that data
to different systems.Managing these observability data pipelines is
essential for being able to leverage your data and quickly gain
actionable insights. In cloud and containerized environments,
Fluent Bit is a popular choice for marshaling data across
cloud-native environments.A super fast, lightweight, and highly
scalable

Authentication directly affects the UX, dev experience, and
security of any app.Authentication solutions ensure that sensitive
user data is protected and only owners of this data have access to
it.Although authentication is a vital part of web services,
building it correctly can be time-consuming and expensive.For a
personal project, a simple email/password solution can be built in
a day, but the security and reliability requirements of
production-ready
Docker has a built-in stats command that makes it simple to see the
amount of resources your containers are using.Just drop $
docker stats in your CLI and you’ll get a read out of the
CPU, memory, network, and disk usage for all your running
containers. But this command only gives you a current moment in
time.What if you wanted to see the evolution of the resources over
time?Or see how much CPU and memory a Docker Compose project is
using?
Docker Desktop 4.15 is
here, packed with usability upgrades to make it simpler to find
the images you want, manage your containers, discover
vulnerabilities, and work with dev environments.Not enough for
you?Well, it’s also easier to build and share extensions to add
functionality to Docker Desktop.And Wasm+Docker has moved from technical preview to
beta! Let’s dig into what’s new and great in Docker Desktop 4.15.
