DEPRECATED: The legacy builder is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
Install the buildx component to build images with BuildKit:
https://docs.docker.com/go/buildx/
This means the scripts we used to build both single and multi-arch layers docker images would need to be updated accordingly, or we should lock the docker engine version now.
On LINUX:
The legacy builder behavior will be replaced by buildkit eventually, in which it will contain the buildx plugin, all commands also changed compares to the legacy docker build command.

The buildkit does not support Windows docker image build as of now per their msg:
Classic builder for building Windows images
BuildKit does not (yet) provide support for building Windows images, and docker build continues to use the classic builder to build native Windows images on Windows daemons.
We still need to monitor and observe this behavior going on.
As of now, we should start locking docker version on both LINUX images and Windows images, so that breaking change can be taken care greacefully if the classic builder ever get removed.

Since docker engine has released version 24, we have seen the legacy builder behavior being deprecated and will be eventually removed in a future release: https://docs.docker.com/engine/deprecated/#legacy-builder-for-linux-images
This means the scripts we used to build both single and multi-arch layers docker images would need to be updated accordingly, or we should lock the docker engine version now.
On LINUX:
The legacy builder behavior will be replaced by buildkit eventually, in which it will contain the buildx plugin, all commands also changed compares to the legacy
docker buildcommand. https://github.com/moby/buildkitThe buildx behavior is unchanged and we can still use the buildx plugin by itself as of now, as we already lock the buildx version here: https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-build/blob/main/docker/ci/dockerfiles/current/docker-builder.ubuntu2004.x64.dockerfile#L57
On Windows:
The buildkit does not support Windows docker image build as of now per their msg:
We still need to monitor and observe this behavior going on.
As of now, we should start locking docker version on both LINUX images and Windows images, so that breaking change can be taken care greacefully if the classic builder ever get removed.
Thanks.
