# Cloud Containers for Portable, Scalable Application Deployment > URL: https://www.atlantic.net/cloud-platform/cloud-containers/ | Updated: 2026-09-16 Deploy Docker containers today on Atlantic.Net Cloud Virtual Servers in any of eight data center locations. ACP Container Engine and Managed Kubernetes are currently in development and available through preview access. - One-Click Docker Deployment - Ubuntu LTS Support - Windows Server 2022 / 2025 - 8 Data Center Locations Cloud Server Deployment: Under 30 Sec Managed Orchestration: Preview Access The Atlantic.Net Research and Development teams are building an autoscaling container orchestration and deployment platform for the Atlantic.Net Cloud Platform. Container services create an abstraction layer away from the environment they run on. Containers are lightweight, easy to deploy, and scale very well. Whether you are looking to leverage libraries of vendor-approved, pre-built containers or your own existing application containers, the Atlantic.Net Container Engine will provide the support and functionality you are looking for. ## Docker support is currently available. ACP Container Engine and Managed Kubernetes (K8s) are coming soon. Email feedback@atlantic.net with the subject "Requesting preview access to Container Engine and/or Managed Kubernetes" for an exclusive preview invite. ## Docker Docker is synonymous with containerization. It remains the most widely used standard for container applications, with a developer community that is second to none. Docker support is currently available on Atlantic.Net as a one-click application on current Ubuntu LTS releases, and on Windows Server 2022 / 2025 Datacenter (with Containers/Docker as a server-based deployment). Both can be deployed in any of our eight data center locations in under 30 seconds. ### Container Engine Currently in development, the ACP Container Engine is our solution for managed container deployment. Your Docker containers are stored securely within the Atlantic.Net Cloud in a private Docker registry. You can build and deploy containers automatically on an ultra-fast, highly available platform. ### Managed Kubernetes Currently in development, Managed Kubernetes (K8s) is coming soon to the Atlantic.Net Cloud Platform. Originally created by Google, Kubernetes is now fully open-source and actively maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). K8s is an orchestration platform for container deployment automation, simplifying the running and maintenance of containers at scale. Kubernetes is the service mesh that manages the deployment of resources (workers). It intelligently manages resources, a strong fit for Docker cloud CI/CD. ## Read More About Cloud Containers [Containers in Cloud Computing](https://www.atlantic.net/vps-hosting/containers-cloud-computing/) from Atlantic.Net A Guide to [Container Hosting](https://www.atlantic.net/vps-hosting/container-hosting/) ## Frequently Asked Questions About Cloud Containers ### What container technologies does Atlantic.Net support? Docker is currently available as a one-click application on Atlantic.Net's Cloud Platform. ACP Container Engine and Managed Kubernetes (K8s) are in development and available through preview. ### How do I get preview access to Container Engine or Managed Kubernetes? Email feedback@atlantic.net with the subject "Requesting preview access to Container Engine and/or Managed Kubernetes". The Atlantic.Net team will respond with a preview invite and onboarding details. ### What's the difference between Docker and Kubernetes? Docker packages applications into portable containers; it's the standard for building and running individual containerized apps. Kubernetes orchestrates many containers across many hosts, handling scheduling, scaling, rolling updates, networking, and self-healing for production fleets. Most teams use both: Docker (or another OCI-compatible runtime) to build images, Kubernetes to run them at scale. ### Can I run containers on Atlantic.Net Cloud Virtual Servers today? Yes. Docker is available as a one-click application on supported Linux and Windows Server images. You can deploy a Cloud Virtual Server in under 30 seconds and run containerized workloads immediately, while the managed orchestration layer (ACP Container Engine, Managed Kubernetes) is preparing for general availability. ### Where will containers be hosted geographically? Atlantic.Net's container deployments run inside the same eight global data center regions used for the rest of the Cloud Platform: New York, Dallas, San Francisco, Ashburn, Orlando, Toronto, London, and Singapore. You can place containers close to your users or replicate across regions for resilience. ## Dedicated to Your Success Jason Coleman VP of Information Technology, Orlando Magic > "After evaluating a range of managed hosting options to support our data operations, we chose Atlantic.Net because of their superior infrastructure and extensive technical knowledge."
