## The `-slim` image variant
+
+
The image of An Otter Wiki runs as root user (with uid=0) and comes bundled with nginx that listens on port 80. The lighter image variant is the `-slim` image: It's based on alpine, has no nginx bundled and an uWSGI server is running as unprivileged `www-data` user (with uid=33). uWSGI serves both An Otter Wiki and the static files and listens on port 8080.
+
+
Except for the exposes port, the images are interchangeable. For example a `docker-compose.yaml` running the most recent version of a `-slim` image:
+
+
```yaml
+
services:
+
otterwiki:
+
image: redimp/otterwiki:2-slim
+
restart: unless-stopped
+
ports:
+
- 8080:8080
+
volumes:
+
- ./app-data:/app-data
+
```
+
+
The `redimp/otterwiki:2-slim` image is as stable as the 'fat' image, after all it is what is running [otterwiki.com](https://otterwiki.com).
+
## Kubernetes
An Otter Wiki can be conveniently deployed on kubernetes using the official Helm Chart.
