Render Docker Deployments

Render uses BuildKit for Docker builds. All compute service types that support custom runtimes can use runtime: docker (build from a Dockerfile in the repo) or runtime: image (pull a prebuilt image; no Dockerfile build on Render). Deeper patterns and copy-paste templates live under references/.

When to Use

  • Authoring or debugging a Dockerfile for a Render service
  • Choosing runtime: docker vs runtime: image in a Blueprint
  • Wiring private base images or prebuilt images with registry credentials
  • Multi-stage builds, build args, secrets, and layer caching
  • Performance and security hardening of container images on Render

For full Blueprint authoring, see render-blueprints. For end-to-end deploy flows, see render-deploy.
