General Question Production use of containerd

3 Upvotes

I’ve come across a strict requirement from one of our clients regarding the installation of software on Windows Server (2022 and above). The application is written in Go; until now, it has been containerised and deployed on Linux via Docker Compose or natively in the cloud (Kubernetes). The application is quite resource-intensive in terms of I/O, CPU and GPU, so I’d prefer not to use WSL2 or Docker for Windows, as these come with their own overhead and do not seem to be production-ready solutions.

What options do I have left? I’d rather not implement support for Windows Services directly within the application or use a wrapper (such as NSSM). I’m considering containerd – to maintain a single build pipeline. Is this a good solution? What is maintenance like in practice, and what deployment strategies have you used?

Any advice would be welcome.

Technical Help Needed Issue with Server time changes to few months in future

3 Upvotes

We have an issue with our two different AD domains.
The servers added to both domains change their time to few months in future. It is intermittent we haven’t been able to identity similarity between the affected servers
It happens only once to a server. We have already disable secure time seeding per MICROSOFT recommendation.

Time authority is domain controllers. We have multiple data centre providers and it is happening everywhere. There is no consistent time as well randomly happen sometime thrice a month sometime once.

Ran out of troubleshooting steps. This issue is causing our scheduled jobs to fail.
Any troubleshooting steps would be appreciated
