    Hi 👋  Fred, 

    Yes, FNCM Standalone Container supports Azure AKS or ARO (Azure Redhat Openshift). The deployment is standardized between all supported CNCF (K8s Engines). 

    You can see this documentation here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/filenet-p8-platform/5.5.12?topic=using-containers

    Here are the deployment artifacts hosted here: https://github.com/ibm-ecm/container-samples

    The items you will need to figure out would be the following: 

    • Storage Class -- Suggestion is AzureFile
    • Ingress Controller -- Azure Application Gateway (AGIC), however slightly painful to use. If you need something for just dev/test nginx ingress controller will work. 
    • DNS -- Azure has a DNS if you need a custom hostname 

    Be on the lookout for FNCM 5.6.0 being released on Friday 6/28!

    Hope this helps! 

    Best,

    Be aware that for any environment, including a simple Dev one, if you are going to install containers, you must use the operator. The FNCM standalone containers are pretty straightforward to install....and Jason always provides great guidance.
