Would a five year old Docker image still work? I mean, probably, but for long term maintenance of a build environment, I would feel significantly better with a VM.
- vidarh 3y agoI have Docker images older than that I use regularly. For things where kernel changes matter, sure a VM may provide better isolation, but should you ever run into problems running your older Docker images, you can easily solve that by spinning up a VM to run Docker in as a worst case fallback. Docker strikes a nice balance of ease of integration and sufficient isolation for most situations.
