Ravikanth Chaganti · Apress eBooks · 2018
Containers have existed for a while in the Linux world; now with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 containers have entered the Microsoft Windows world too. Containers accelerate application development, testing, and deployment and are useful in the dynamic data center and cloud environments where DevOps practices are implemented. You can get an application from a development environment to production in a completely automated way by building the container images in the development stage and then shipping the same image through validation and finally to production. The configuration needed for the application to work can be packaged into the image itself. In this chapter, you will explore how to use DSC with Windows containers using Server Core.
