Minimal Attack Surface and Optimized Runtime with Bottlerocket OS

In the evolving landscape of cloud-native applications, security and performance are paramount. Bottlerocket OS is a Linux-based operating system optimized for hosting containers. It is free and open-source software, developed in the open on GitHub. Bottlerocket is installed as the base operating system on the machine or instance where your containers themselves are running. It is specifically designed to work with your container orchestrator (like Kubernetes) to automate the lifecycle of the containers running in your cluster.

Key Features and Benefits

• Minimal Attack Surface: Bottlerocket includes only the essential software required to run containers, reducing the attack surface compared to general-purpose operating systems.

• Optimized Runtime: The OS is designed for high performance, ensuring efficient resource utilization for containerized workloads.

• Immutable Infrastructure: Bottlerocket employs an immutable infrastructure model, enhancing security and simplifying updates.

• Seamless Integration with AWS Services: It integrates seamlessly with AWS services like Amazon EKS, ECS, and Karpenter, making it easy to deploy and manage at scale.

By adopting Bottlerocket OS, OneData Software ensures that containerized applications run on a secure, high-performance, and scalable platform, aligning with industry best practices for cloud-native environments.
