Accelerate going from code to Cloud with Docker Desktop and Microsoft
Docker and Microsoft have simplified the developer flow of bringing container applications from your local machine and running them in Azure Container Instances (ACI). Together, this partnership helps increase developer productivity by offering a seamless context switch and simplified workflow, This process improvement enables developers to use the Docker CLI to spin up and manage containers running in ACI.

Docker Desktop for Windows is Docker designed to run on Windows 10. It is a native Windows application that provides an easy-to-use development environment for building, shipping, and running dockerized apps.

Docker For Microsoft Windows 7
Docker and Microsoft have a joint engineering relationship to deliver a consistent Docker experience for developers and operators. All Windows Server 2016 and later versions come with Docker Engine - Enterprise. Additionally, developers can leverage Docker natively with Windows 10 via Docker Desktop. To learn more about how Docker and Microsoft are partnering, the following resources are available for you to review.

Running a container in Microsoft Azure Container Instances (ACI) with Docker Desktop. I am looking at creating a Docker (set) for applications that run on Windows. So, I need the Docker to have Windows OS. What license do I need for it? Or if I run the Docker on a Windows VM, does it make use of the same license from the Host? The best place to get that is Docker.com. If you are on Windows, download Docker for Windows (Stable channel). It supports both Windows and Linux containers. If you are an Azure user, you should check out Docker Edition for Azure. If you are new to Docker, I recommend that you check out the Get Started with Docker section in the Docker.

Docker Desktop provides several networking features to make it easier touse.
Features
VPN Passthrough
Docker Desktop networking can work when attached to a VPN. To do this,Docker Desktop intercepts traffic from the containers and injects it intoWindows as if it originated from the Docker application.
Port Mapping
When you run a container with the -p argument, for example:
Docker Desktop makes whatever is running on port 80 in the container (inthis case, nginx) available on port 80 of localhost. In this example, thehost and container ports are the same. What if you need to specify a differenthost port? If, for example, you already have something running on port 80 ofyour host machine, you can connect the container to a different port:
Now, connections to localhost:8000 are sent to port 80 in the container. Thesyntax for -p is HOST_PORT:CLIENT_PORT.
HTTP/HTTPS Proxy Support

Known limitations, use cases, and workarounds
Following is a summary of current limitations on the Docker Desktop for Windowsnetworking stack, along with some ideas for workarounds.
There is no docker0 bridge on Windows
Because of the way networking is implemented in Docker Desktop for Windows, you cannotsee a docker0 interface on the host. This interface is actually within thevirtual machine.
I cannot ping my containers
Docker Desktop for Windows can’t route traffic to Linux containers. However, you canping the Windows containers.
Per-container IP addressing is not possible
The docker (Linux) bridge network is not reachable from the Windows host.However, it works with Windows containers.
Use cases and workarounds
There are two scenarios that the above limitations affect:
I want to connect from a container to a service on the host
The host has a changing IP address (or none if you have no network access). We recommend that you connect to the special DNS namehost.docker.internal which resolves to the internal IP address used by thehost. This is for development purpose and will not work in a production environment outside of Docker Desktop for Windows.
You can also reach the gateway using gateway.docker.internal.
If you have installed Python on your machine, use the following instructions as an example to connect from a container to a service on the host:
Run the following command to start a simple HTTP server on port 8000.
python -m http.server 8000If you have installed Python 2.x, run
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000.Now, run a container, install
curl, and try to connect to the host using the following commands:
I want to connect to a container from Windows
Port forwarding works for localhost; --publish, -p, or -P all work.Ports exposed from Linux are forwarded to the host.
Our current recommendation is to publish a port, or to connect from anothercontainer. This is what you need to do even on Linux if the container is on anoverlay network, not a bridge network, as these are not routed.
The command to run the nginx webserver shown in Getting Startedis an example of this.
To clarify the syntax, the following two commands both publish container’s port 80 to host’s port 8000:
To publish all ports, use the -P flag. For example, the following commandstarts a container (in detached mode) and the -P flag publishes all exposed ports of thecontainer to random ports on the host.
