Describe the stages of a CI/CD pipeline for a containerized app

This tests your practical knowledge of automated software delivery and risk management for containerized applications. A strong answer outlines the key stages: commit triggers static analysis (CI); a Docker image is built and scanned; the image is deployed to staging for integration tests (CD - Delivery); finally, it's deployed to production using a safe strategy like blue-green, with monitoring and rollback capabilities (CD - Deployment). A red flag is forgetting container-specific steps or the role of quality gates.
