🔥 Most Predictable Exam Questions (1)

95% Probability 8 Marks Module 3: Containerization & Docker

Q1. Explain the architecture and workflow of Docker. Differentiate between Docker Image and Docker Container, and write a production Dockerfile for a Node.js web application.

Key Points: Docker Client -> Docker Daemon -> Containerd / Runc -> Registries. Image is read-only template with layered filesystem; Container is running instance with writable container layer. Write multi-stage Dockerfile: FROM node:20-alpine AS build, WORKDIR /app, COPY package*.json, RUN npm ci, COPY ., RUN npm run build, FROM nginx:alpine, COPY --from=build.
