The What, Why and How of Containers – Annwan; HN

Wolfi “is a community Linux OS designed for the container and cloud-native era. Chainguard started the Wolfi project to enable building Chainguard Images, our collection of curated distroless images that meet the requirements of a secure software supply chain. This required a Linux distribution with components at the appropriate granularity and with support for both glibc and musl, something that was not yet available in the cloud-native Linux ecosystem. Wolfi is a stripped-down distro designed for the cloud-native era. It doesn’t have a kernel of its own, instead relying on the environment (such as the container runtime) to provide one. This separation of concerns in Wolfi means it is adaptable to a range of environments.”

Chainguard Images contain only what is required to build or run your application. This results in fewer CVEs over time compared to other base images and on average an 80% reduction in overall size. * Signed with Sigstore * SBOMs included
