The container paradigm, and how it is implemented on linux, was not built with security in mind. It’s only to restrict resources, think CPU and RAM. The documentation of Docker explains [this in more detail](https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/security/).
This implies that your container should not use the user “root” to run commands, to the why see [here](https://medium.com/@mccode/processes-in-containers-should-not-run-as-root-2feae3f0df3b).
So on all your images add those two lines to make your application run with a dedicated user. Replace `algolia` with a name more relevant for you.
YAML can be a [tricky](https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/topics/troubleshooting/yaml_idiosyncrasies.html) format.
We recommand to use [`yamllint`](https://github.com/adrienverge/yamllint). Compared to other YAML linter. It has the nice feature of supporting multi-documents in a single file. The file [yamllint](./yamllint) is a good configuration for this tool.
You can also use Kubernetes specifics linter. [kube-score](https://github.com/zegl/kube-score) lints your manifests and enforce good practices. [kubeval](https://github.com/instrumenta/kubeval) also lints the manifests, but only checks if they are valid.
In Kubernetes 1.13 the option [`--dry-run`](https://Kubernetes.io/blog/2019/01/14/apiserver-dry-run-and-kubectl-diff/) appeared on “kubectl”. You could also use this feature to know if your YAML are valid for Kubernetes.
Kubernetes sends this signal when it wants to stop a container. You should listen to it and react accordingly to your application (close connections, save a state, etc.).
