Anastassios Nanos delivered an insightful presentation at OpenInfra Days Hungary, in Budapest, earlier this June, highlighting the innovative capabilities of the Kata Containers project. The talk focused on the project’s advancements, particularly the introduction and maturity of the Rust runtimes, alongside the go version of the runtime, and demonstrated how the Kata team is leveraging these technologies to enhance the performance and security of serverless workloads. As a first time Architecture Committee member since April 2024, Dr Nanos presented the current status of the project, and how the team at Nubificus & Nubis is using kata-containers to sandbox serverless workloads, while exposing hardware acceleration capabilities by integrating vAccel to the container runtime.
Nubificus LTD proudly presents the latest release of the vAccel framework.
vAccel v0.6.0
is available, as well as a hot fix
followup for
x86_64, aarch64, and armv7l architectures, with the essential binaries
for users to get started.
FOSDEM 2024 was a blast! Our team was there presenting our work around unikernels, and their interaction with the cloud-native world.
The SERRANO H2020 research project,
a collaborative effort led by ICCS’ High Speed
Communication Networks Lab, successfully concludes,
marking a significant breakthrough in various aspects of cloud- and edge-based
computing technologies. The project aimed to introduce a novel ecosystem
spanning application deployment software components, to systems software
enabling the use of specialized hardware resources.
