Unikraft Cloud Platform: Unikernels-as-a-Service

In plain words

Unikraft Cloud Platform is a Unikernels-as-a-Service offering that enables users to build and deploy lightweight, specialized operating systems tailored to specific applications. It targets developers seeking efficient infrastructure alternatives to traditional virtual machines and containers. The platform stands out by allowing users to strip away unnecessary kernel features, resulting in faster boot times, reduced memory consumption, and improved security through a minimal attack surface.

The millisecond compute layer used for sandboxes, headless browsers, CI/builds, functions / Agents / Databases and much more. Instant boot, VM-grade isolation, and millisecond scale-to-zero, so you can ship with superior economics. Deploy on-prem, BYOC or on dedicated hosts — you own the entire stack.

The compute layer for sandboxes, AI agents, or any workload. VM-grade isolation. Scale to zero in <10ms. Up to 100K+ instances per server. Deploy on-prem, BYOC or on dedicated hosts - own the full stack . Fork a live virtual computer in 10 milliseconds, irrespective of its workload (its children too). Fork DBs, sub-agents, parallel headless browsers to retrieve a webpage faster, parallel debugging or build sessions, or whatever your use case demands. Children microVMs Templates Turn your [sandbox | headless browser | build | etc] runtime into a template and launch large number of instances from it in 10 milliseconds. The platform allows for 1,000s such templates — full flexibility and…from unikraft.io

  Hi HN! We’re Yann, Edouard, and Bastien from Koyeb (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.koyeb.com&#x2F;). We’re building a platform to let you deploy full-stack apps on high-performance hardware around the world, with zero configuration. We provide a “global serverless feeling”, without the hassle of re-writing all your apps or managing k8s complexity [1]. We built Scaleway, a cloud service provider where we designed ARM servers and provided them as cloud servers. During our time there, we saw customers struggle with the same issues while trying to deploy full-stack applications and APIs resiliently. As…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
