After optimizing containerized applications processing petabytes of data in fintech environments, I’ve learned that Docker performance isn’t just about speed — it’s about reliability, resource efficiency, and cost optimization. Let’s dive into strategies that actually work in production.
The Performance Journey: Common Scenarios and Solutions
Scenario 1: The CPU-Hungry Container
Have you ever seen your container CPU usage spike to 100% for no apparent reason? We can fix that with this code below:
