Quick description about unikraft:

Unikraft powers the next generation of cloud-native, containerless applications by enabling you to radically customize and build custom OS/kernels; unlocking best-in-class performance, security primitives, and efficiency savings. Unikraft optimizes resource utilization, leading to smaller footprints (meaning higher server saturation) and improved efficiency in resource-constrained environments. Unikraft is an open-source project driven by a vibrant community of over 100 developers, fostering collaboration and innovation from industry and academia. Unikraft boasts a modular design approach, allowing developers to include only necessary components, resulting in leaner and more efficient operating-system configurations. Unikraft is fully modular, with a constantly growing ecosystem with many popular open-source operating systems and application libraries like musl and openssl available for use, allowing you to pick and choose exactly what you need for your target application.
