While we have been running Sitecore in containers in production for a while it has never been explicit and officially approved by Sitecore to do so... until now!

Check out https://kb.sitecore.net/articles/161310 for the details.

In my opinion it's a very important step for Sitecore as a platform, us and our customers and I for one is extremely happy :)

A special thank you to everyone involved in making this happen!
