Deciding between Docker and local::lib and App::perlbrew is mostly an organisational decision.

With local::lib, you can delegate some of the maintenance to the machine administrators, as they install (and maintain) the external libraries, mostly through the OS package manager. You are responsible for installing and maintaining the Perl libraries that have no package in the OS repository.

With Docker, you are in control (and responsible) for all of the libraries and Perl libraries as well.

With App::perlbrew, you are completely independent of the system Perl, but still need the system administrators to install external libraries.

Personally, I prefer to rely on the system administrators for maintaining the overall system, that is, I strive to use local::lib or App::perlbrew to either maintain my own Perl or my libraries together with the system Perl.
