Build Once.
Run Anywhere. Securely.
Gleyon containerises your applications with production-hardened Dockerfiles, multi-stage optimised builds, and a full container security posture — delivering consistent, portable, and leak-proof workloads from dev to production.
From Raw App to Production-Ready Container
Production-Grade Dockerfiles
Multi-stage builds that compile in a heavyweight builder image and produce a minimal runtime image — reducing final image size by up to 90% while eliminating build tools and secrets from production layers.
Container Security Hardening
Non-root user enforcement, read-only root filesystem, seccomp profiles, AppArmor/SELinux policies, capability dropping, and Trivy/Snyk image scanning integrated into CI — zero critical CVEs leaving the pipeline.
Docker Compose Environments
Multi-service local development environments with Docker Compose — complete with dependent services (Postgres, Redis, Kafka), health checks, volume mounts, and environment variable management.
Private Container Registry
Setup and management of private container registries (AWS ECR, Azure ACR, GCR, Harbor) with RBAC, image signing (Cosign/Notary), automated vulnerability scanning, and image lifecycle policies.
Legacy App Containerisation
Lift-and-containerise legacy monolithic applications — breaking service dependencies, externalising configuration, adding health endpoints, and wrapping in Docker without a full rewrite.
Image Build Optimisation
Layer caching strategies, BuildKit parallelisation, .dockerignore tuning, and base image selection to reduce CI build times from minutes to seconds across your full microservices portfolio.
Containerise Your Stack in 3 Phases
App & Dependency Audit
Analyse application runtime requirements, identify external dependencies, external secrets, ephemeral vs persistent data, and plan the container boundary strategy for each service.
Build, Harden & Scan
Write production-grade multi-stage Dockerfiles, apply CIS Docker Benchmark hardening, integrate Trivy scanning into CI, and benchmark image sizes against distroless/Alpine targets.
Registry & Runtime
Configure private registry with image signing, push automated build pipelines, set up runtime security (Falco), and establish image lifecycle policies and base image update automation.
Consistent Environments, Zero Surprises
The "works on my machine" problem disappears. Containers guarantee that the exact same build that passed QA is the one that runs in production — same OS, same dependencies, same configuration.
- Guaranteed dev/staging/production environment parity
- Multi-stage builds reduce image size by up to 90%
- CIS Docker Benchmark Level 2 hardening on all images
- Trivy + Snyk scanning prevents vulnerable images reaching prod
- Image signing with Cosign for supply-chain integrity
- Ready to migrate to Kubernetes as next step
