Hi,

Can PBI Report Server be deployed using Docker containers?

TIA

I don't think it's supported. In theory you can put any .NET sites in a container - the main problem here is that your container size would be very large. There are still a lot of depedencies in PBI RS that don't lend themselves to containerization. I would think that all of that work is being targeted for the service offering rather than the PBI RS offering.

My suggestion is that you don't attempt this.

Can it be done, well Yes.

Is it supported, No.

But if you don't mind running a 5.3Gb windows container and for whatever reason it has to be a containner then you could use the below as a starting place.
