To connect Nginx to Docker, set up a shared network, service name, host and forwarded header, WebSocket, timeout, upstream health, and IP trust limit.
The speed of code change is important in development; in production stability, image stability, secret, limited network, backup and rollback. See Compose file differences…
Compose can be suitable for single-server production, provided you know the constants of image, backup, healthcheck, secret, monitoring and rollback; HA and rollout.
In Multi-Stage Build, each FROM is a standalone stage and only the artifact needed with COPY --from the final image; read the advantages, common mistakes, and test method.
Design the Dockerfile to produce, base, build multi-phase, cache, secret, non-root, signal, healthcheck and final image test.
Run the app with contract, multi-step Dockerfile, user non-root, external configuration, healthcheck, volume, secret, CI and Dockerize secure test.
Docker packs apps and dependencies into a repeatable image; check its benefits, limitations, and criteria for team, production, and MVP selection.
