Running Out of Space on Your Cloud Server? Try Cleaning Up Docker Cache

This page is also available in: 中文

As shown in the image below, after using your cloud server for a while, you might notice that the available space is decreasing rapidly.

This situation is likely caused by Docker images, caches, and intermediate compilation files. You can try running the following command:

sudo docker system prune -a -f

This command will clean up all unused caches and intermediate files generated during compilation.

After cleaning, you can check again and see that the available space has increased.

Do you know any other methods to free up storage space on a Linux system? Feel free to leave a comment in the section below.
