Build Windows images for cloud or virtual machines. This guide shows how to use Packer with WinRM and PowerShell. It works for AWS, Azure, and VMware.
Windows builds take time and cost money. Expect 45 to 120 minutes per build. Windows Updates cause long waits. Always check that resources are cleaned up after a failed build.
