Hey Jonathan,
No, you can't run the TurboFloat Server inside docker containers and we have no plans to add support for doing that.
[Note for other customers reading this thread: your can run *your app* using the TurboFloat Library inside Docker and every other container/VM type -- that is fully supported].
>> "We have a customer who has a mandate to run absolutely everything inside a container (no bare servers allowed). "
Oh, boy. Well, that's interesting. Hopefully they aren't doing it for security reasons (because if they are, they're in for a world of hurt -- Docker can best be described as a poor-man's VM with none of the security benefits of a VM but all of the pain of a VM).
The solutions:
1. Ship them an ARM version of Linux on a USB stick, put the latest Linux on it, and install the TurboFloat Server on it. Computer on a stick.
2. Run TFS instances from your own infrastructure or from hosted infrastructure that you control.
3. Wait for our hosted version of the TFS (coming late 2017 / early 2018 -- no hard date yet). The customer themselves will be able to spin-up TFS instances in the cloud and have full control over them.
