Understanding the Workflow to Build Images

Image Builder Workflow

Image Builder is the technology used to craft images. Image Builder allows us to take the Red Hat content we’re familiar with, optionally add in third-party content and configurations, and then build a standard image to deploy out to our edge systems.Technically, it can create images for multiple compute destinations: AWS, Azure, VMware, and more, however we’re interested in the ability to create edge-focused images.

In the next exercise, we’ll be building an edge image using Image Builder.
