This post is the first of a series introducing how to use CloudBees SDM to solve real-life, daily problems faced by software teams.

Support for Windows containers has been a stable part of Kubernetes since v1.14, meaning that you can have a node pool consisting of Windows servers and create pods that run in that pool. We'll take a look at how to use CloudBees CI to define Jenkins Pipeline tasks that should be run on Windows nodes to automate multi-platform development efforts.
