Keynote: Introducing Kata Containers
summary
Kata Containers is a hardware‑accelerated container runtime that merges Clear Containers and runV to deliver the speed of containers with VM-grade isolation, claiming sub-100ms boot and per‑container lightweight VMs that use VT‑x and QEMU optimizations to reduce overhead. It implements container runtime interfaces, integrates with CRI/Kubernetes and OpenStack, supports multiple hypervisors and architectures, and is hosted under the OpenStack Foundation with a contribution‑based technical steering model.
