Updates to container images can be managed. For example, a processing device can detect that a first container-image is updated by monitoring a repository associated with the first container-image. The first container-image can be updated subsequent to a second container-image being built. The processing device can determine that the second container-image depends on the first container-image by analyzing a database that indicates a dependency relationship between the second container-image and the first container-image. The processing device can then automatically rebuild the second container-image using an updated version of the first container-image in response to (i) detecting that the first container-image was updated, and (ii) determining that the second container-image depends on the first container-image.
