Hi, Alex from Unikraft here. One clarification: Browser-Use didn't move away from Unikraft because of any limitation around browser startup times, snapshotting, scale-to-zero, or b…

Howdy! We are hard at work at improving the DX, and as a result we've been working on a brand new CLI. We haven't made any announcements yet, but it's already open-source for early…

Hey! Co-founder of Unikraft here. Unikraft aims to offer a Linux-compatible environment (so it feels familiar) with the ability to strip out unnecessary internal components in orde…

Which OS and device are you using?

This project operates by first building the webassembly module into an ELF binary and then statically linking this against the Mewz library OS in order to become a unikernel binary…

Hi! Thanks for the feedback! Good point on the Kraftfile syntax and as you've seen, there is a reference document. We can make sure to place a link to this in all guides. The term …

Hi everyone, it’s Alex, Simon, Felipe and the team from Unikraft.io We have built kraft.cloud, a millisecond cloud platform, where apps and services cold start, scale to zero and a…

We ended up doing this over at https://unikraft.io :-)

Correct -- and you can run multiple kernels on the machine with virtualization extensions. Even Docker Desktop does this. You'd do this for _real_ isolation purposes.

Containers are perfect for build environments and for creating the root filesystem. The issue is that the kernel these days are super bulky and are intended for multi-user, multi-p…

If you're looking for an alternative way to run traefik, we support this out-of-the-box on https://kraft.cloud -- A platform dedicated to running ultra-lightweight VMs based on Doc…

Hi, author here, You can, and we've written about the differences also, here [0]. The summary is that there is still a performance hit for boot time (100s of milliseconds to second…

In fact gVisor is the opposite, it injects more guard instructions between the application and the kernel across the syscall layer in order to make stronger security guarantees. Th…

> Most people don't run metal today We are seeing an increasing trend towards On-prem/Cloud-prem/Co-los[0], mainly due to cost and reduced complexity. Inversely, most smaller compa…

In fact this is not true with Linux. We did a study of this[0] and found that there are too many interdependencies between Linux kernel subsystems. The smallest, usable Linux kerne…

Hi, [disclaimer, I am a project maintainer]. The key difference between unikernels (and library OSes) vs. other kernels is that each kernel is different with a unikernel. Your appl…

Hi, Alex here from Unikraft, that's right! You can find more information about Unikraft here: - https://unikraft.io -- The Unikraft Company - https://unikraft.org -- The open-sourc…

Thanks and, yes it does! We have a whole section in our documentation's guides section on example usecases with database: https://docs.kraft.cloud/guides/#databases They work exact…

Volumes are persistent, block devices which you mount to a path and are initialized and de-initialized by the kernel which we boot up and shut down, respectively, based on autoscal…

Hi, 1. Yes. We're essentially a baremetal solution. Either we run it on your behalf (this is kraft.cloud), or we deliver an ISO or AMI and this can be installed on-prem/cloud-prem.…

Definitely! We plan on having a pay-per-millisecond pricing model as well. There's an initial free tier that, but once limits are reached, we will switch to pay-as-you-go plan. Our…
