Yes, those are standard now because they're "old" in the rest of the industry. It remains to be seen if newer tech that is starting to become standard outside of the Microsoft ecosystem today (containers, for example) will be integrated fast enough to matter.

I mean containers like docker. https://www.docker.io/

It's 'Drawbridge'[0,1] in the windows world and it is on it's way apparently.

You can run mono in linux containers which means you can run this stuff too.

Containers? You mean like MEF(Included in .net framework) or Unity?

.Net has always had containers like that.

No he mean ressources isolation containers (tiny VMs)

[UK-AL → Guillaume86]

I don't know how they would do that with windows, since it requires features in the linux kernel.

Starting with Windows 8, Hyper-V (Microsoft's virtualization platform) is built into the OS - and one of the goals with it was to be able to virtualize different environments invisibly to the end-user.

The Hyper-V team have also been actively committing to the Linux kernel for many years now, and I'm happily running a 6-node Cassandra cluster on my Windows 8 dev machine right now using Hyper-V :)

So it's not there yet, but ground has been broken.
