You know, I'd love to run MSVC in Wine on a ubuntu container. I bet it would be quicker.
I've had the unfortunate pleasure of working with Windows Containers in the past. They are Containers in the sense that you can write a dockerfile for them, and they're somewhat isolated, but they're no better than a VM in my experience.

They're not the same thing. If that's the case running linux AMI's on EC2 should be the same as containers.
- akdev1l 2y agoIt’s the same thing for the purposes of capturing the build environment. It doesn’t really matter if you have to spin up a Linux instances and then run your build environment as a container there vs spinning up a windows VM.
