Red Hat UBI base images
Red Hat Universal Base Images (UBI) are our standard base for OCI container images. They’re built from RHEL content, receive Red Hat’s security updates, and can be freely redistributed, so the images we publish don’t need a subscription to run. The minimal and micro variants keep images small, and using the same package base in containers and on hosts means one set of security advisories to track.
