> Currently we are using DS11.5 ,Do we need to upgrade to 11.7 in order to do that?

Those are all questions that you need to be asking IBM via a Case ticket (formerly PMR ticket).

Information Server 11.7.1 is the only version available in docker containers that you would need to deploy on Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Red Hat Openshift. So the answer to your questions about upgrade is yes, you would need to use version 11.7.x

Check in your Passport Advantage site if there is a docker container with the Windows version already available for your download
