Today at Microsoft\u2019s annual Build conference<\/a> we\u2019re announcing that the Translator service on Azure<\/a> is now available in containers as gated preview. Containers enable you to run some features of the Translator service in your own environment. Containers are ideal for organizations with limited Internet connectivity, or for organizations with specific security and data governance requirements that prevent them from sending information to the cloud. For organizations without these constraints, the Azure Cloud service remains a scalable and secure<\/a> solution for automatic machine translation.<\/p>\n

Containerization is an approach to software distribution in which an application or service, including its dependencies and configuration, is packaged together as a container image that can be deployed on a container host. Containers are isolated from each other and the underlying operating system with a smaller footprint than a virtual machine. Containers can be instantiated from container images for short-term tasks and removed when no longer needed.<\/p>\n
