  • Idiomatic and Reproducible Software Builds Using Containers for Reliable Computing
    Master’s Thesis Idiomatic and Reproducible Software Builds using Containers for Reliable Computing Jonas Weber April 18, 2016 arXiv:1702.02999v1 [cs.SE] 9 Feb 2017 Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg Faculty of Engineering Department of Computer Science Bioinformatics Eingereichte Masterarbeit gemäß den Bestimmungen der Prüfungsordnung der Albert-Ludwidgs-Universität Freiburg für den Studiengang Master of Science (M.Sc.) Informatik vom 19. August 2005. Bearbeitungszeitraum 12. Januar 2016 - 12. Juli 2016 Gutachter Prof. Dr. Rolf Backofen Head of the Group Chair for Bioinformatics Zweitgutachter Prof. Dr. Christoph Scholl Director Chair of Operating Systems Betreuer Dr. Björn Grüning Abstract Containers as the unit of application delivery are the ‘next big thing’ in the software development world. They enable developers to create an executable image containing an application bundled with all its dependencies which a user can run inside a controlled environment with virtualized resources. Complex workflows for business-critical applications and research environments require a high degree of reproducibility which can be accomplished using uniquely identified images as units of computation. It will be shown in this thesis that the most widely used approaches to create an image from pre-existing software or from source code lack the ability to provide idiomaticity in their use of the technology as well as proper reproducibility safe-guards. In the first part, existing approaches are formalized and discussed and a new approach is introduced. The approaches are then evaluated using a suite of three different examples. This thesis provides a framework for formalizing operations involving a layered file system, containers and images, and a novel approach to the creation of images using utility containers and layer donning fulfilling the idiomaticity and reproducibility criteria.
