Answer
Immutable images prevent unintended changes.
Immutability in Docker means that once an image is created, it cannot be altered. This ensures consistency across deployments. For a microservice, this means every instance runs the exact same code and dependencies. Imagine deploying a payment service for an e-commerce app; with immutable images, you can be confident that each instance is running the same trusted code.
