Overview
Container Runtime for Windows, Mirantis Container Runtime, Docker Container Runtime, Docker Engine
If your teams are already building and managing applications with Docker, you can promote those workloads to production without needing to retool or migrate. Mirantis Container Runtime (formerly Docker Engine - Enterprise) is fully compatible with Docker-based workflows and toolchains, providing a seamless path from development to production. Developers can continue using the same CLI, Dockerfiles, and APIs they already know, while IT can seamlessly promote those workloads into production with the assurance of an Enterprise Support agreement with guaranteed SLAs.
MCR, built on CNCF Docker Moby, is purpose-built for running containers at scale in production. It offers tested and validated releases across a broad set of operating systems, with robust CVE patching and bug fixes to ensure workload stability. MCR also enables hybrid and distributed cloud strategies by supporting the broadest range of platforms in the industry while meeting strict compliance standards.
Mirantis acquired Docker Enterprise in 2019, and since then has been contributing upstream to Docker Moby and related technologies. Today, MCR provides enterprise-ready container infrastructure that aligns with open standards, enabling customers to run Docker-based applications reliably in mission-critical environments.
The latest MCR 29 plan introduces a number of important platform enhancements designed to improve operability, developer experience, and production readiness. These include improved IPv6 networking support, device code login support for Docker Hub, the containerd image store as the default backend for new installations, enhanced IP address management visibility, additional Docker Swarm service options, and API and SDK improvements for third-party integrations.
Key Features include:
- Security: AppArmor application-level access control, SELinux mandatory access control (MAC), FIPS 140-2 validated encryption, image signature verification, and support for sandboxed and isolated container runtimes such as Kata and gVisor
- Performance: Optimized architecture with minimal resource overhead, fast container startup for efficient deployment and scaling
- Ease of Use: Intuitive Docker CLI and support for Docker Swarm container orchestration in addition to Kubernetes
- Multi-Cloud Interoperability: Support for multiple cloud platforms and operating systems, giving customers seamless portability with consistent management
- AI Workload Support: Native AI container support, enhanced GPU Support with Container Device Interface (CDI) to integrate different accelerators and device types
- Modern Platform Enhancements in MCR 29: Improved IPv6 stability, modernized image management with containerd image store, enhanced network IPAM visibility, new Swarm service controls, and API/SDK updates for developers
As an OCI-certified and CRI-conformant runtime, Mirantis Container Runtime (MCR) aligns with industry standards and is compatible with leading container orchestration platforms. Tested at scale and proven with hundreds of customer deployments, Mirantis Container Runtime is used to support mission-critical applications from data centers to the edge.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the container runtime, billed per Amazon EC2 instance you run it on. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, all sized at xlarge. The list spans many instance families, including general purpose, compute, memory, storage, and GPU-accelerated types. Pricing follows the instance you select, so your cost tracks how many instances run and for how long. There are no tiers or upfront commitments here; charges accrue only while instances run. The runtime capabilities stay the same across every instance type, so your choice reflects hardware needs, not feature differences.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension bills the container runtime software per hour on one running xlarge Amazon EC2 instance of that type. One unit equals one instance running for one hour. The rate is tied to the specific instance family you launch, and separate AWS charges for the instance itself apply on top.
Software charges meter running time only. A fully stopped or powered-off instance stops accruing the hourly runtime charge. Underlying AWS storage costs for the instance may still apply while it is stopped, but the runtime license bills only for hours the instance actually runs.
Your cost follows whichever instance type you run. Moving to a different xlarge type applies that type's hourly rate for the hours it runs. The runtime capabilities do not change, so the difference reflects hardware choice, not features. Charges from each instance accrue independently and appear on the same invoice.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
