Sponsored Keynote: The Future of Virtualization

on YouTube ↗05m

" summary

Overview of concrete work: Firecracker and Kata Containers drive a shift toward tiny, secure VMs and the Rust-VMM project supplies reusable Rust libraries (device models, memory abstraction, virtio plumbing, PCI pass-through) so teams can assemble custom hypervisors. Cloud Hypervisor is a Rust-VMM-based hypervisor released for modern cloud use, targeting small memory footprint, fast startup, smaller attack surface. Community contributors include Alibaba, Amazon, Google and Intel; the code is usable today but still early, with live-migration and other features actively under development.
