Cloud-hypervisor: A new choice for virtual machine monitor

--

Cloud-hypervisor is a new virtual machine monitor (VMM) written in Rust language, which makes it memory-safe and concurrency-efficient. 

Cloud-hypervisor was originated by Intel. It shares gene with two other famous Rust-based VMM: CrosVM (Google) and Firecracker (AWS). 

Cloud-hypervisor focuses on running cloud workloads. The design target of Cloud-hypervisor is to run workloads in cloud providers. So it supports only a limited set of para-virtualized devices, excludes large amount of legacy devices. Now it supports two major architectures: X86_64 and ARM64.

This workshop introduces the development and use cases of this rising VMM and provides a live demo.
