If you think Firecracker is interesting, checkout Cloud Hypervisor [0]. The difference according to Cloud Hypervisor team:
> A large part of the Cloud Hypervisor code is based on either the Firecracker or the crosvm project's implementations. Both of these are VMMs written in Rust with a focus on safety and security, like Cloud Hypervisor.
> The goal of the Cloud Hypervisor project differs from the aforementioned projects in that it aims to be a general purpose VMM for Cloud Workloads and not limited to container/serverless or client workloads.
Firecracker is such a great piece of technology. I'm amazed that AWS actually open-sourced it. All kudos to them. We're using Firecracker at our company to allow API companies build interactive demos like this one we built for Prisma [1].
