What about updates and such? How are those handled?
Afaik, you can add a version tag to your docker image. The cool thing is, that due to container isolation, you can run different versions of the INDI library on the same hardware. Special care has to be taken if you change the container, e.g. changing the config file, then you have to commit those changes in order to ensure that the changes don't get lost. It works a bit like git ... Though docker use special Linux kernel features (namespaces), you can run docker on Windows (>= 10) as well. They use the new embedded Linux virtualization on Windows 10 (however currently limited on windows 10 pro...). When windows supports Ubuntu > 14.04, this could be an intereting option to run native indiserver on windws ... just a thought.
