SERRANO Project Concludes with Nubificus LTD laying the ground for Interoperable Hardware Acceleration and Secure Application Deployment
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.
One of the key achievements of the SERRANO project is the work carried out by Nubificus LTD in enabling interoperable hardware acceleration using vAccel. Nubificus LTD played a pivotal role in developing and implementing solutions that allow seamless interoperability among diverse hardware resources, contributing to enhanced performance and efficiency in Cloud and Edge computing.
Furthermore, Nubificus LTD has been instrumental in facilitating the deployment of applications in Cloud and Edge environments through the integration of secure and efficient container runtimes. Through the development of urunc, an open-source, lightweight container runtime that spawns unikernels as generic containers Nubificus LTD paved the path for seamless applications deployment at the Edge, maintaining security standards and efficiency across various computing environments.
SERRANO’s ambitious goal of transforming distributed edge, cloud, and HPC resources into a single borderless infrastructure has been realized through the efforts of all partners. The project has not only closed existing technology gaps but has also set the stage for advanced infrastructures capable of meeting the stringent requirements of future applications and services.
