Abstract
Processing within a container-based computing environment is facilitated by standardizing container identification processing. The process includes, for a container being provided from a container image, extracting multiple layer files from the container image and using natural language processing to determine frequency of occurrence of software components in the multiple layer files of the container image. Further, the process includes generating a container name for the container using the determined frequency of occurrence of software components in the multiple layer files of the container image. The method further includes providing the container for the container-based computing environment using the container image and the generated container name. The generated container name facilitates processing within the container-based computing environment by being based, at least in part, on the frequency of occurrence of software components in the multiple layer files of the container image.
