US Patent 11256493 Container image optimizer

A system accesses a disk image of a first software container and collected sensor data for a computer server. The system sequentially analyzes the sequence of layers of the disk image, and generates, based on the sequential analysis of the sequence of layers of the disk image, an auto coding sequence. The auto coding sequence includes a sequence of instructions for creating a new disk image. The system determines, based on the collected sensor data and the sequential analysis of the sequence of layers of the disk image, a sequential list of software needed for the computer server. The system determines, using the sequential list of software needed for the computer server, a plurality of infra requirements for a new software container. The system generates the new software container and the new disk image using the auto coding sequence and the plurality of infra requirements.
