# The function is defined to take one parameter, 'container',

# This line uses regular expressions to split the 'container' string.
# 're.split' is a method that divides a string into a list, based on the occurrences of a pattern.

# The pattern "(_|-)(database|db|postgres)" is explained as follows:
# - "(_|-)": Matches an underscore '_' or a hyphen '-'.
# - "(database|db|postgres)": Matches one of the strings "database", "db", or "postgres".
# So, this pattern will match segments like "_database", "-db", "_postgres", etc.
# For example, in "central-db", it matches "-db".
# After splitting, [0] is used to select the first element of the list resulting from the split.
# This element is the string portion before the matched pattern.
# For "central-db", the split results in ["central", "db"], and [0] selects "central".
