Container group support for Windows

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-multi-container-group

Below is a quote from the above URL.

Is there a technical reason that windows is not supported? Or will it eventually be supported? If yes, any idea when windows will be supported?

Multi-container groups are currently restricted to Linux containers. While we are working to bring all features to Windows containers, you can find current platform differences in Quotas and region availability for Azure Container Instances.

Product team from ACI here - docs are correct that Windows containers do not support multi-container groups yet. We will update the documentation to be clearer about that.

We do plan to support multi-container groups for Windows though, currently estimated for support in late 2018 / early 2019. Stay tuned to Azure updates for the latest.

Multi-container group is currently restricted to Linux containers because network namespace is not available on Windows. Maybe it would be supported for windows in future.

You can get more details following this link.
