With the introduction of BNCS V6, DDK based drivers are able to be built to run as Docker containers.  Generally, a driver that has been developed in line with our recommendations should require little or no code changes in order to be built for Docker deployment.

 

Docker support is built on the tooling provided within Dotnet Core and Visual Studio (2022 or 2026)  This document does not seek to provide a comprehensive guide to building for Docker using the Microsoft toolchain - there are ample resoources available online that demonstrate how to do this.  Instead, we will detail the BNCS specific considerations - specifically how to deal with configuration and communication with the rest of the BNCS network.
