Abstract
Embodiments described herein are directed to configuring managed computing devices utilizing containerized applications. For instance, a mobile device manager may provide configuration settings to a computing device via, for example, an enterprise network. A host operating system (OS) executing on the computing device determines and applies the settings that are applicable to the host OS. The configuration settings are stored for configuring containerized applications executing on the computing device. For instance, as new containerized applications are launched by the host OS, the containerized applications retrieve the configuration settings and determine and apply the settings that are applicable to the containerized applications. Results of applying the configuration settings to the host OS and the containerized applications are merged and sent to the mobile device manager. The host OS and the containerized application may, for example, implement the settings in order to be compliant with an enterprise's policy.
