What is the status of Sugar on Docker for production environments?

Docker is not currently on the roadmap.  You can see our 8.0 supported platforms at http://support.sugarcrm.com/Resources/Supported_Platforms/Sugar_8.0.x_Supported_Platforms/ 

On a related note... Since you said you've been using Docker for development, hopefully you're aware of Enrico Simonetti's Sugar Docker repo:  GitHub - esimonetti/SugarDockerized: Sugar Dockerized (Sugar application not included. Download at www.sugarcrm.com) .  We use it as part of our Professor M's School for Gifted Coders automation, and it works well.  You can learn more about how we leverage the Sugar Docker repo and see our scripts in the School repo:  GitHub - sugarcrm/school: Professor M's School for Gifted Coders

Hi Lauren Schaefer,

Not even on the roadmap? That is definitely a pity for an enterprise-grade application in 2018  

This would help us fix some of the issues we encounter for instance with different versions of PHP required by different applications in an information system. 

Although we are perfectly conscious of the vast amount of work invovled, we respectfully insist on having that on your backlog with a higher level of priority

Finally, we are indeed well aware of Enrico's work. This is what we are using 

It's now 2020 and many customers are moving to the cloud... It would be great, though, if Enterprise could enjoy the same level of technical innovation as the rest of IT and move to a container-based architecture  

We asked also what is the agenda, the technical actions and the deadline to support the 12 factors app principle by the product.

By this way than will confirm the capability to the product to be containerize and by consequence scalable , setting up on cloud infrastructure and more specifically on k8s infrastructure.

We've been experimenting with SugarCRM in docker and Kubernetes and having a lot of success. The main thing is that Quick Repair & Rebuild does quite the number on the database and file system, and you never want to run it if you're trying to keep the application container stateless.
