Container is becoming the most popular application platform.Image pulling is a mandatory step during container startup. The speed of downloading an image is a key factor of fast application response.Some applications require image with a huge size (e.g. machine learning frameworks and data for training). Pulling such images becomes a time-consuming task.JD Cloud optimizes the pulling of Docker images by adopting lazy loading technology. Containers deployed on JD Cloud, when pulling images from JD Cloud container registry, can benefit from on demand image loading. Container startup time is significantly reduced with this techonolgy.
