  • linuxkit

    A toolkit for building secure, portable and lean operating systems for containers

  • I believe there is growing interest in providing leaner, "trimmed" runtimes for services deployed to the cloud. Today, this is seen largely by specializing the Linux kernel for, for example, container services[0] or in general[1], as much as that is possible (the paper above covers this problem in greater detail). But, Unikernels in themselves are not yet widely adopted. This is the space Unikraft is aiming to enter, providing the ultimate level of specialization for a target application.

    It's clear that bigger players, such as Red Hat[2] are interested in the topic of unikernels, and that cloud providers are preparing for this future too [3].

  • unikraft

    A next-generation cloud native kernel designed to unlock best-in-class performance, security primitives and efficiency savings.

  • lib-python3

    Unikraft port of Python 3

  • This does not mean you cannot still use pip to manage Python dependencies. Simply package all the required addditional libraries from pip through a virtualenv/venv, and package this in the filesystem that the python3 Unikraft unikernel reads on boot.

    For more details, check out the library for details: https://github.com/unikraft/lib-python3

  • mirage

    MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels

  • How does this differ from MirageOS? ( https://mirage.io/ )
