Container image optimization is provided for a deployment environment. An indication of a plurality of container images to be deployed in a deployment to provide a plurality of services within a computing environment is obtained. The plurality of container images of the deployment has a total layer size of a plurality of image layers of the plurality of container images. At least one container image of the plurality of container images is reconfigured to adjust the total layer size for the deployment. The reconfiguring is based on one or more deployment characteristics of the deployment and includes replacing at least one image layer of a container image of the at least one container image with one or more other image layers configured based on the plurality of container images to be deployed.

Container image optimization for a selected deployment environment

A method, computer systems and program product to import non-compliant container images is provided. A processor receives a non-compliant container image, wherein the container image is not compliant with a target computing environment. A processor extracts a one or more embeddings from the non-compliant container image. A processor compares the one or more embeddings from the non-compliant container image to a plurality of one or more embeddings from an image catalog. A processor identifies a similar image from the image catalog based on the comparison of layer embeddings from the non-compliant container image and the similar image. A processor deploys the similar image in the target computing environment.
