08. Setting up and Deploying eShopOnContainers to Windows Containers

This is a draft page which will be evolving while our tests and dev regarding Windows Containers are completed. eShopOncontainers on Windows Containers is still under tests at the windows-containers-test branch.

For now, we're just adding the current "Windows Containers" support.

Windows Containers support:

Windows Server 2016 - Production Environments

• Comes with Docker Enterprise Edition
• Designed to run apps in production
• Call Microsoft for support. If it's a Docker rather than Windows problem, they escalate to Docker and get it solved

Windows 10 - Dev Environments

• Docker Community Edition (formerly Docker for Windows)
• Support via forums/GitHub
• Can switch between Windows container development and Linux (in VM). There is no plan to drop either OS from Docker CE
• Designed for devs only. Not production

Docker might provide per incident support system for Docker Community Edition, or provide a "EE Desktop" for developers, but it's their call to do so. Not Microsoft's.
