A live discussion between two developer advocates covering findings from a 2025 container security survey of 400+ DevOps and Java professionals. Key findings: security is now the top priority when choosing base container images, yet 69% of respondents use JDKs with known CVEs, only 18% generate a software bill of materials, and 40% still include package managers or curl in production images. The conversation covers base image choices (Alpine leads at 41%), JDK distributions, the risks of outdated OpenJDK images, update frequency gaps, and the security implications of bloated container images. Native images, CRaC, and Alpakita Linux (Bellsoft's musl-optimized distro for Java workloads) are also discussed as paths toward better performance and security.
