Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product are provided for generating a container providing a computing environment. At least one processing device combines a base image of a first type of container, including at least one application and an operating system, with a base image of a second type of container including middleware and configuration information to produce a base image of a target container including, from the first type of container, the at least one application and the operating system, and the middleware and the configuration information from the second type of container. The base image of the target container is executed on a computer to provide the computing environment configured in accordance with the configuration information.
