Good day everyone, welcome to the Containerization Hub. Here you will find containerization articles that have already been published in PI Square and also the titles of those articles that are planned for the future (subject to changes). Users will just need to bookmark this page rather than bookmark all the individual articles.

Important: As of May 30, 2019. We are no longer distributing the source code for the Docker container images. Please refer to Important update to OSIsoft's GitHub Policy, November 2018

  • Hello,

     

    It's been quite a while now, since there are any upgrades on this topic. I was thinking about moving to containerization for PIWebAPI services in order to scale, have a better availability & ensure that all my web stuffs aren't Windows independant, this API being part of it.

     

    How are things moving ?

    Is it still something we can hope seeing in production and maintained by OSisoft soon ?

     

    One thing that I'm also asking myself is why isn't OSISoft developping its PIWebAPI in .net core thus allowing customers to run it in smaller environments than Windows, smaller footprints and easing containerization.

     

    Regards,

    Yoann
