Chiseled Ubuntu
Ultra-small, ultra-secure containerisation
Rethink your containerisation strategy with chiseled Ubuntu — where ultra-small meets ultra-secure. Trim your attack surface by 6x and get the reliability of a vendor-supported Linux distribution.
Only include the dependencies you need
Applications commonly rely on a large, recursive set of dependencies, but they only use a limited subset of the functionalities offered by each one of them.
Since Debian packages are archives that can be inspected, navigated and deconstructed, it is possible to define slices of packages that contain minimal, complementary, loosely-coupled sets of files based on package metadata and content.
Chisel offers a way to define those slices, so that your container only includes what's strictly necessary for the application, and nothing more.
