Most Cloudforet's Core and Plugin container images are using `python:3.8`.
I suggest using `python:3` instead of `python:3.8` for image updates.
It is not just for the purpose of upgrading the python version, but for the purpose of updating the basic OS(debian) and libraries of the image. latest OS libraries can also resolve container image security vulnerabilities.
Along with this, if you use `python:3-slim` instead of regular `python:3` , you can further lightweighting the image and reduce the size of the container image to less than half.
