Q: How do you improve application deployment times?

> * **Docker Optimization**: Leverage multi-stage builds, pin base images, and optimize layers to decrease image sizes. * **CI/CD Caching**: Enable runner caches for project dependency folders (e.g., node_modules, .m2 directories). * **Parallelization**: Run tests, security scans, and artifact compilation stages in parallel using runner matrices. * **K8s Pre-pulling**: Configure daemonsets or warm-up pools to cache large base images on Kubernetes nodes.
