Hi Ismael, Thanks for the feedback. The alpine image does present a few drawbacks, such as the use of musl libc instead of glibc, the absence of bash, and reliance on the less popular package manager "apk". Considering the advantage of a smaller image size and installing the missing packages(glibc and bash), I have proposed the alpine image as the base image. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I have added a detailed section for the same in the KIP.
