Configuring Windows Containers
William Panek · 2018
This chapter offers guidance on how to determine installation requirements and appropriate scenarios for Windows Containers, install and configure Windows Server container host in physical or virtualized environments, and configure Windows Server container host to Windows Server Core or Nano Server in a physical or virtualized environment. One of the nice advantages of using Windows Containers is that the containers can be managed the same way an administrator can manage an operating system. A container works the same way as a newly installed physical or virtual machine. Hyper-V Containers and Windows Containers work the same way. The difference between the two is that Hyper-V Containers run within a virtual machine and the Windows Containers do not need to run in a Hyper-V environment. In a Hyper-V Container the container host's kernel is not shared between the other Hyper-V Containers.
