Building and Managing Container Images at Scale with Cloud Native Buildpacks

Discover how to efficiently build and manage container images at scale using Cloud Native Buildpacks (CNBs) in this 45-minute conference talk. Learn about the challenges of traditional build pipelines and how CNBs offer a standardized approach to transform application source code into container images without Dockerfiles. Explore the advanced caching mechanisms that significantly improve build performance and the modular, reusable nature of CNBs. Gain practical knowledge on running buildpacks with the Pack CLI and implementing Heroku's opinionated buildpacks. Understand how large platform operators leverage CNBs to scale their container builds effectively. By the end of the talk, acquire the skills to implement Cloud Native Buildpacks in your own projects, accelerate development pipelines, reduce costs, and achieve greater agility in containerized application deployments.
