Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Savings cost for self managed K8s?
My team is working on multi-cloud AWS Bottlerocket remix (Azure, GCP) with opt-in support for [firecracker-containerd](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-containerd) for our in-house CNCF distro, investigating microkernels applicability (tldr; they are not production-ready). We test kubernetes compat and migration plans for over 40+ cherry-picked solutions, and facing numerous compat issues for every k8s update. We do have support for Container Managed Control Planes described above, as well.

Multi-tenancy in Kubernetes
You could use a container sandbox like gVisor, light virtual machines as containers (Kata containers, firecracker + containerd) or full virtual machines (virtlet as a CRI).

Firecracker internals: deep dive inside the technology powering AWS Lambda(2021)
There is this project, which I have never used, but seems promising. https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-container...
- Python 3.11 is out !

Is Fargate just a part of ECS?
Exactly, it is about secure multi-tennancy. If I recall correctly firecracker doesn't replace containerd, microVMs still runs some sort of it. Anyway, you still need a base OS because container doesn't have the whole OS image. Also I think you can have multiple containers in a single Fargate task so they have to be isolated too.

Firecracker MicroVMs
How does that compare to firecracker-containerd?
https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-container...
This repository enables the use of a container runtime, containerd, to manage Firecracker microVMs. Like traditional containers, Firecracker microVMs offer fast start-up and shut-down and minimal overhead. Unlike traditional containers, however, they can provide an additional layer of isolation via the KVM hypervisor.
