  • kata-containers

    Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/

  • Kubernetes using Kata containers as a containerd backend

    https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main...

  • ignite

    Discontinued Ignite a Firecracker microVM (by weaveworks)

  • Take a look at Weaveworks Ignite for an open source tool for running Firecracker VMs from container images: https://github.com/weaveworks/ignite

    And of course AWS Fargate and Lambda use this tech under the hood transparently, so that's always an option if you don't want to host and operate it yourself.

  • buildbuddy

    BuildBuddy is an open source Bazel build event viewer, result store, remote cache, and remote build execution platform.

  • firecracker-containerd

    firecracker-containerd enables containerd to manage containers as 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.
