Vyoma — MicroVM Ecosystem

What it does

Run hardware-isolated MicroVMs as easily as Docker containers. Under 150ms boot, ~5MB overhead, 100% kernel isolation via cloud-hypervisor + KVM. Use your existing OCI images. Open source, Apache 2.0.

Vyoma is a MicroVM manager powered by cloud-hypervisor . Use OCI images you already have, get hardware-level isolation in under 250ms. One binary. No YAML gymnastics. Every container on a host shares the same Linux kernel. One kernel exploit, one container escape — and the attacker owns everything . Namespaces are policies. VMs are physics. Same workflow. Same images. Completely different isolation level. Pull any image from Docker Hub or your private registry. No conversion step. No new image format to learn. Vyoma speaks OCI natively. cloud-hypervisor creates a MicroVM with its own kernel, memory, and network stack. Hardware isolation via KVM — not namespaces. Not policy — physics.

  Sub-millisecond VM sandboxes using CoW memory forkingMar 2026 · github.com · ▲311

  I wanted to see how fast an isolated code sandbox could start if I never had to boot a fresh VM. So instead of launching a new microVM per execution, I boot Firecracker once with Python and numpy already loaded, then snapshot the full VM state. Every execution after that creates a new KVM VM backed by a `MAP_PRIVATE` mapping of the snapshot memory, so Linux gives me copy-on-write pages automatically. That means each sandbox starts from an already-running Python process inside a real VM, runs the code, and exits. These are real KVM VMs, not containers: separate guest kernel, separate guest…

  Talanoa▲346

  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…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
