Microsoft has decided to expand its support for Linux containers in the next release of Windows Server. Linux containers and workloads will work natively on Windows Server, said Erin Chapple, general manager for the server operating system. The company also will extend Window Server’s Hyper-V isolation capability, which was introduced in the 2016 release of the operating system. “This means customers will no longer have to deploy two separate container infrastructures to support both their Windows and Linux-based applications,” Chapple wrote.
