You can run Windows in Docker.
Ether figure it out now, or in 2 years when VMware starts to suck.
Then again, all the big companies I know put things off until the last moment.
If I was a better developer I'd be putting together a project right now that allows you to run all your happy legacy Windows software with Docker.
Shouldn't be hard to raise a bit of funding for such a project assuming you have the right background.
- thedougd 4y agoI'm running some in production. Windows containers are full of problems, gotchas, and caveats. It feels as though Microsoft has already abandoned it and moved on. Similar feelings with DSC and other modernization efforts for Windows. I believe their focus has entirely shifted to Azure and will slowly replace the Windows Server use cases with SaaS and PaaS offerings.
