The Sitecore demo team builds container images with many base operating systems. We build on Linux, Windows Server 2019 (ltsc2019), and two semi-annual releases (2004 and 20H2 at the moment).

We've discovered the beauty of Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS) in Azure. This is a step-by-step guide on how you can create scale sets for different Windows or Linux versions and configure Azure pipeline agent pools to use them - it's built in!
