Alpine Linux has been a fantastic choice for docker images. Small, light and has a package manager that keeps getting better. I had one big snag using it with kubernetes, DNS based service discovery didn't work (https://bugs.alpinelinux.org/issues/4371 https://bugs.alpinelinux.org/issues/4371). The work around was fairly simple and used env vars, but if you dig on this bug I'm not sure when (if ever) that will get fixed.
