Dedicated Containers

Dedicated Containers give each subscription its own isolated Linux application container with dedicated CPU, memory and disk allocations. The container image ships with PHP, Node.js, Python, Go, Java and Ruby runtimes, and the console lets you deploy long-running apps, manage files, schedule cron jobs and tune PHP versions, extensions and php.ini.

In the left-hand menu of the console, open App containers (/host/containers) to see your containers. Click Details (the eye icon) on a row to open its management page.
