Specifications

OSRM API: https://project-osrm.org/docs/v5.24.0/api/#.

Example:

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:5001/route/v1/driving/7.623329386622931,58.69773711014142;8.718283472951525,59.49305932590341?overview=false'

Notes

While the container may start on any machine, the server within the container does not succesfully start without enough peak memory availability (e.g., with a total of 24 GB). In case please change machine and/or swap mem size.

osrm/osrm-backend official images are not up-to-date (>2 years old) because of maturity of the routing machine. However, the base docker images are obsolete and hence the need to develop a new one with the most up-to-date backend server and base image.
