We made Windows Server Core container images >40% smaller

Shikha Kaul

Over the past year, we’ve been working with the Windows Server team to make Windows Server Core container images a lot smaller. They are now >40% smaller! The Windows Server team has already published the new images in the Server Core Insider Docker repo, and will eventually publish them to their stable repo with their 20H1 release. You can check them out for yourself. I’ll tell you how we did it and what you need to know to take advantage of the improvements.
