You need more container and a load balancer ;-)

#121. Ability to run containers on other platforms (so I can test that my code works on several platforms) like Windows. 2. Per-minute or per-second billing (the testing only takes a few seconds and only occurs a couple of times per day)
Basically, on every commit to specific branches of the code base I want to spawn several docker containers (on someone else's infrastructure) I want to build (./configure && make && make test) the software on Windows/x86, Windows/x86_64, Linux/x86, Linux/x86_64 (and more -- but I'll settle for what I can get...) and then report the results back.
The containers will run for a few seconds and have no dependency on any other infrastructure, so something simple is ideal for me.

#16Seems that container that serves the website hadn't auto-scaled well ;) (currently it's responding with 502 Bad Gateway) Based on Google cache results, I suspect that the page's rendered server-side, with React, and the container's really busy doing the same DOM stuff over and over. If owners are reading - I think the easiest trick to try (besides scaling up) would be to tell nginx to cache the index page (with `prox…

#17This looks like almost what I want for a CI system I am developing, however it is missing several things I would want: 1.

Windows (current gen) and Linux are the only platforms that have native official Docker runtimes at this point. There is immature support on some BSDs, nothing on OSX that I know of, and some interesting rumours from the SmartOS/Illumos area.
If you target anything other than Linux/Windows, I'd suggest running your containers in a Linux VM, which is what the official Docker app on e.g. OSX does underneath anyway. In that case, you may not need to consider VM-backed OSes as separate platforms, since according to the code in your container it's still on Linux.
Also, you may already know this, but: if you're building Linux apps (ELF binaries or linux-specific APIs), the docker containers you can run on Windows will still (I think) run in a Linux virtual machine under the covers, so it doesn't really count as a different platform unless you're distributing a Windows application to Windows, and are compiling it for Windows.

The software being built does indeed target Windows APIs natively. It is mature software and supports a lot of platforms.
