Docker Done Right: Images, Security, and Production Workflows

By AMARA HAWTHORN

Docker Done Right is the definitive, practical guide for developers, DevOps engineers, and platform teams who want to build secure, optimized, and production-ready container workflows. This book goes beyond basic docker build and docker run commands to show you how to create lean images, lock down vulnerabilities, and design workflows that scale confidently from laptop to production.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

Build minimal, efficient Docker images using multi-stage builds and advanced layering strategies

Reduce attack surface and implement container security best practices

Scan, sign, and verify images in modern CI/CD pipelines

Manage secrets safely without compromising deployments

Optimize build performance with caching and reproducible builds

Design production-grade workflows for reliability, observability, and compliance

Implement supply chain security and defend against real-world threats

With real-world examples, actionable checklists, and proven patterns used in modern engineering teams, Docker Done Right equips you with the tools and mindset to move from "it works on my machine" to secure, scalable production deployments.

Whether you're modernizing legacy systems, building microservices, or hardening enterprise infrastructure, this book gives you the clarity and confidence to ship containers the right way-every time.
