Description
KVM, which stands for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, serves as a comprehensive virtualization solution for Linux systems operating on x86 hardware equipped with virtualization capabilities (such as Intel VT or AMD-V). It comprises a loadable kernel module, known as kvm.ko, that underpins the essential virtualization framework, along with a processor-specific module, either kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. By utilizing KVM, users can operate several virtual machines that run unaltered Linux or Windows operating systems. Each virtual machine is allocated its own set of virtualized hardware components, including a network interface card, storage, graphics adapter, and more. KVM is an open-source project, with its kernel component integrated into the mainline Linux kernel since version 2.6.20, while the userspace aspect has been incorporated into the mainline QEMU project starting from version 1.3. This integration enables widespread deployment and support for various virtualization applications and services.
Description
Unikernels offer remarkable speed, enhanced security, improved server density, and the potential to eliminate the need for traditional DevOps practices. They can start up two hundred times quicker than Docker and enable applications to run up to twice as fast on Google Cloud Platform and three times as fast on Amazon Web Services. By their very nature, unikernels mitigate various types of remote code execution vulnerabilities, allowing for the deployment of thousands of instances on standard hardware. This capability allows us to provision hundreds or even thousands of virtual machines using the same physical resources. Rather than merely scanning for compromised systems, we take a proactive approach by removing the tools that hackers rely on to carry out their attacks. Furthermore, the efficiency and security benefits make unikernels an increasingly attractive option for modern cloud infrastructures.
