Windows Containers notes

• Published ports from Windows Containers aren't accessible on the container host (they are remotely). Use Container IP locally:
  • docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.Networks.nat.IPAddress }}' <container>
  • Docs explaining this
  • GH Issue tracking fixes
    • host's IP on host does work now in Creator's Update: "as well as having direct access to the container using the Host IP and exposed port." - https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/virtualization/2017/04/13/whats-new-in-hyper-v-for-the-windows-10-creators-update/
    • localhost on host doesn't work yet
• Troubleshooting & Logs - Docker docs: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/troubleshoot/#docker-knowledge-hub

ThreadPool Growth: Some Important Details

The CLR ThreadPool has two types of threads - "Worker" and "I/O Completion Port" (aka IOCP) threads.

• Worker threads are used when for things like processing Task.Run(…) or ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(…) methods. These threads are also used by various components in the CLR when work needs to happen on a background thread.
• IOCP threads are used when asynchronous IO happens (e.g. reading from the network).

The thread pool provides new worker threads or I/O completion threads on demand (without any throttling) until it reaches the "Minimum" setting for each type of thread. By default, the minimum number of threads is set to the number of processors on a system.

Once the number of existing (busy) threads hits the "minimum" number of threads, the ThreadPool will throttle the rate at which is injects new threads to one thread per 500 milliseconds. This means that if your system gets a burst of work needing an IOCP thread, it will proces

Getting Started

Here's how to take any EXE and create an installer for it:

1. Install-Package squirrel.windows
2. Use NuGet Package Explorer (or any other way) to create a NuGet package for your app.
3. Open the NuGet Package Console, and type Squirrel --releasify path/to/the/nuget/package.nupkg

You should have a folder called Releases with three files in it. Publish those all to S3 in the same folder and you've now got an installer

Retrieving Docker Image Sizes

There are two metrics that are important to consider when discussing the size of Docker images.

1. Compressed size - This is often referred to as the wire size. This affects how fast/slow images can be pulled from a registry. This impacts the first run experience on machines where images are not cached.
2. Uncompressed size - This is often referred to as the size on disk. This affects how much local storage is required to support your Docker workloads.

The example commands shown below will work on Windows, MacOS, and Linux.

Some of the Redis best practices content has moved

This content from this markdown file has moved a new, happier home where it can serve more people. Please check it out : https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/azure-cache-for-redis/cache-best-practices.

NOTE: Client specific guidance listed below is still valid and should still be considered. I will update this document once all content has been moved.
