Docker friendly Alpine Linux gets hardened Node.js
The NodeSource developed an enterprise-oriented NSolid Node.js runtime for Docker containers. The NSolid for Alpine Linux is intended to work seamlessly with Alpine Linux.
The NSolid Node.js runtime contains three critical enterprise technologies namely the Linux kernel, Docker containers and Node.js server-side JavaScript applications.
The containers using the Alpine will require about a maximum of 8MB and in the disk it takes about 130MB. Alpine is usually seen on the rise among Linux users due to Alpine’ s small footprint and security capabilities and it also offers security enhancements to prevent an array of zero-day and other vulnerabilities that could happen. The users can get a secure option of running the node applications in containers.
The Alpine is generally built around musl library and BusyBox utilities intended for power users. NSolid was previously available for AWS, Google Cloud platform and Microsoft Azure.
