Containers use an open platform for developing, deploying, and running applications. Containerization enables you to create an image that includes an operating system, some of the extend products, your application, any binaries or libraries that your application depends on, and any configuration details. Once an image has been created, you can run that image in a container.
Starting with extend version 10.5.0, samples that enable you to work with images and containers are included. For example, you can run a COBOL program in a container using AcuThin and AcuToWeb. This is available on Windows and some Linux platforms.
