SRE here, I feel like both are just instructions how to get source code -> executable with docker/containers providing "deployable package" even if language does not compile into self-contained binary (Python, Ruby, JS, Java, .Net)

Also, there is nothing stopping you from creating a container that has make + tools required to compile your source code, writing a dockerfile that uses those tools to produce the output and leave it on the file system. Why that approach? Less friction for compiling since I find most make users have more pet build servers then cattle or making modifications can have a lot of friction due to conflicts.
