⁠🏔️ Alpine - Windows Update Cache

Cache Windows Update for all clients via Nginx

⁠SYNOPSIS

What can I do with this? This image will run Nginx as a cache proxy for all Windows Update of all your clients. This means an update is downloaded only once from the web and then stored in the cache. Any further request for this update will be served from the local cache, preserving WAN bandwidth.

⁠VOLUMES

• /nginx/www - Directory of all updates

⁠COMPOSE

services:
  windows-update-cache:
