Image variants

Table of contents

  1. Full
  2. Minimal

NFD currently offers two variants of the container image. The "full" variant is currently deployed by default. Released container images are available for x86_64 and Arm64 architectures.

Full

This image is based on debian:bullseye-slim and contains a full Linux system for running shell-based nfd-worker hooks and doing live debugging and diagnosis of the NFD images.

Minimal

This is a minimal image based on gcr.io/distroless/base and only supports running statically linked binaries.

The container image tag has suffix -minimal (e.g. registry.k8s.io/nfd/node-feature-discovery:v0.12.5-minimal)
