Deployment & Ops Standards

Priority: P1 (OPERATIONAL)

Docker optimization and production deployment standards for NestJS applications.

Docker Optimization

• Multi-Stage Builds: Mandatory.
  1. Build Stage: Install devDependencies, build NestJS (nest build).
  2. Run Stage: Copy only dist and node_modules (pruned), use node:alpine.
• Security: Do not run as root.
  • Dockerfile: USER node.
