Upgrade Your Legacy Windows Server


Applications with Docker Enterprise

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 will be reaching End of Support in January 2020. Windows Server 2003 has
already reached its End of Support. That means no more security and maintenance patches. Many
enterprise organizations are still running business critical applications on these unsupported operating
systems.

Docker Enterprise is the only solution that enables you to migrate legacy Windows Server apps to more
modern operating systems without recoding. Docker gives you the fastest and simplest path to upgrade to
Windows Server 2016+ while eliminating legacy app security risks and improving reliability.

Protect Yourself From Security Risk


• Don’t put your applications at risk with an unpatched or
unsupported operating system that attracts hackers

• Stay compliant by migrating legacy applications to Windows


Server 2016+ with Docker containers

• Improve application isolation through Docker Enterprise

Save on Expensive Support and Engineering Costs


• Avoid expensive “extended support” contracts

• Re-direct engineering resources to more value-added projects


than application migration

• Reduce overall application maintenance costs by 50% through


increased server consolidation and operational efficiencies

Make Your Applications Cloud-Ready


• Containerized applications are portable and can run on any
infrastructure - both on-premises and in the cloud with Docker
Enterprise

A Complete Solution for Legacy Windows Server App Migration


Docker helps your organization meet migration deadlines by providing a field-tested and validated
methodology for containerizing legacy applications. The combination of our enterprise container platform,
purpose-built tools that accelerate containerization and an integrated approach to building a production
container environment help turn your IT department into a “container factory”.

How It Works

App Discovery and Containerization

1
1. Identify and prioritize
applications for
containerization

2. Leverage Docker’s
methodology and tools to
containerize apps

3. Generate Docker artifacts and


remove OS version
dependencies

Secure Apps in New Container-Based Registry, Sign and Scan

2 1. Digitally sign the images and push


them to a secure registry hosted in
your data center or cloud instance

2. Run binary-level scanning for known


vulnerabilities

3. Deploy through standard software


lifecycle (e.g. testing, QA, staging)

3
Deploy Securely to Your Choice of Infrastructure

1. Once application has been approved, deploy


securely to Docker Enterprise running on
Windows Server 2016. This can be in your data
center or in a public cloud of your choice.

2. Monitor and manage the app through Docker


Enterprise

3. Prepare for next steps: app re-factoring, adding


microservices, or moving to a new destination
