Hi thanks for the response, that was really helpful to get a report of real-world usage. I think it's definitely worth our while exploring this further.
I'm currently trying to compile the Oracle driver on Vlad V's Docker image. I will post separately about an issue I'm having there. thanks!

I can recommend it. In my case I'm using only Naviserver, not OpenACS. I have some images on docker hub under siqsuruq/naviserver, it's not official, but they work for me. They are based on a custom ubuntu image I made with Tcl. They are kinda big, about 300 mb but it works for me. About S6 and non S6, difference is only on type of init system used in the image, but i'm not pro at this question. The S6 version of Docker images uses an init system called s6-overlay, the non-S6 version of Docker images typically use a different init system, such as Systemd or SysVinit. In my case I'm using Postgres only, at host not in a Docker container. it looks like its working faster this way. So, in general, you can use a Docker container with Naviserver without any problem.

As part of this we'd like to investigate the feasibility of using Docker, initially for ease of development, and potentially later for production systems. I have a couple of questions that would be good to get the community's responses to. 1. Is there anyone using Docker Naviserver in production? If so would you recommend it, and are there any peculiarities that we should know about? 2. There are quite a few Naviserver images on on https://hub.docker.com, but I don't see an official one. It seems from posts on OpenACS.org <https://openacs.org/xowiki/setup-with-docker-s6> that Vlad V's build has had a lot of community input, and seems to be the de facto build. Would it be worth trying to get that version tagged as an official Naviserver Docker<https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/official_images/> build to give newcomers clarity? I must admit to some confusion regarding the difference between the S6 and the non-S6 versions - should we as a community pick one as the official one? 3. For those of us using Oracle, what would be involved in getting Oracle driver support added as a build/run option? I'd be happy to help with this in any way I can. thanks in advance Brian _______________________________________________ naviserver-devel mailing list naviserver-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:naviserver-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/naviserver-devel
