A computer implemented method, apparatus, system, and computer program product manages updates to images. A computer system determines shared layers present between the images selected for update management. The images comprise executable code that are run to create containers. The computer system detects a change in a shared layer in the shared layers for an image in the images. The computer system updates the shared layer in the shared layers in a set of the images having the shared layer in response to detecting the change to the shared layer for the image. According to other illustrative embodiments, a computer system and a computer program product for managing updates to images are provided.

File system performance enhancement is provided. Information related to a container of the computer accessing a file in a layer of a file system of an image corresponding to the container is recorded to form recorded file system layer access information. The recorded file system layer access information is shared with another file system of a container image corresponding to a different container on the computer. The container image is a same image as the image corresponding to the container that accessed the file to perform an operation associated with a cloud application.
